Best Meteor Poems

contemplating
old age...
compressing
the passage of time
in a streak of light

The changes started,
With meteors falling from the sky,

I stared at the raining lights,
Feeling small,
Feeling connected to everything.

As I feel my soul move within me
Expanding like the universe above

I forget 
past sins and burdens,
because

At this moment,
I could walk on water,

Catch the meteors in jars
like lightening bugs...

Stars are shining, 
I should be smiling. 
Meteors are falling, 
I should be wishing. 
But you're beside me sitting, 
There's no need to be hoping....

Brilliant trails of light
Across a darkened sky
Fireworks in slow motion
A cosmic fourth of July

Scattered bursts of rubble
A dandelion in the wind
Extinguished in moments
Flash of light rescinds

Now I make a wish
As clouds obstruct my view
Will I get good fortune
Or only deja vu...

beyond light
in a park at the 
edge of a small town
the car radio fades
to whispers of nothingness
darkness my intimate friend
one streak then another
something called
a shooting star
tells stories of
the reaches of outer space
a burning passion a passage
of a heavenly tail
swept by celestial light
and solar winds
moments of...

Meteor showers
explode bright, colorful streaks...
natural fireworks

Bright white streak like chalk
across a schoolroom blackboard 
makes us gasp in awe....

The night skies glimmer
As they rocket up and down
Dazzling and dancing

Awaited by hearts
Hoping that wishes come true
Gazers left in awe

Come, adorn the night
With beauty I was enticed
Bring me to the skies...

Last week I looked up
And witnessed with my very own
God given eyes
The impossible

Last week I looked up
And experienced heaven tearing apart

Last week I looked up
And saw God's own creations
Hurtling down from their throne
In an annual commemoration.

You have not been forgotten.
Even the stars themselves 
Know what...

My, my, my meteor 
Rocks me to my core

She stains the sky
With shooting star fire
Beside the Milky Way
Only far, far brighter.
She rides rainbows
Seesaws on sky scales
Sits and smells grass grow
Sees the songs of whales.

My meteor’s a metaphor
Soon you’ll see what for
My metaphoric meteor
Rocks me to...

today the sky is blue
a breeze to inhale
and mercury sharing a drawer with spoons
forks not welcome and knife only if necessary
in a vial I make it dance
left and right we waltz and try to eat the soup
the piece of meteor on a shelf
landing on earth...

Ursids
radiant lights
December meteors
in their ecstatic nighttime flight;
a waning moon will not halt their travel
comet Tuttle left them behind
their annual flight’s bright;
Ursa Minor’s
Ursids.

The crescent moons of the auburn sky
The acid rain clouds dance, purple, by

The air it stings as I respirate
A strange howling noise as the storms berate

This tempestuous land, a million clicks from home
My genes robust; Seventh Generation Clone

As I stand here longing for the ship's...
