Shooting Star

Streaking across night sky fire lit luminary; incandescent celebrity. Ecstasy of enthusiastic leap is this long-jumper of heaven; in sun’s passionate set he earns his fame, streaking.

I HAVE SEEN A SHOOTING STAR BUT FOR IT TO REACH THE FINISH LINE TAKES FOREVER AND FROM WHERE IT STARTED AND WHERE IT WILL END WILL REMAIN A MYSTERY. So well penned my friend, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
