o'er the many hours
Gene Miranda 1963 (Texas)
Fading from sight
into the darkness of the night
was the satellite in it's flight
The owl it does fly by our side
with nary an attempt to hide
from its perch in the tree
I can see it just as it can see me
O' those clouds of gray
they wont dampen my day
for they're not here to stay
wait long enough and they'll be down your way
Last star and the moon
they'll be gone real soon
meteorite and satellites
long gone from my sights
About this poem
Sights and thoughts from evening and morning walks with the dog. Things observed and how I view them.
