A poem dealing with a youngster's fascination

                                                  A Shooting Star
                                                    © 5/22/10
                                            Dr. James E. Martin





He gazed into the evening sky
With intensity beyond compare.
A shooting star shot speedily by,
Coming from who knows where.

Amazement filled his entire being.
Never had he seen this before.
He could not believe what he was seeing.
What else was for him in store?

As he watched it flee from his sight
Another, as quickly, did appear.
Occurring repeatedly throughout the night
Resulting in cheer after cheer.
