Love Poem: Night Sky

Written by: Joseph May

Night Sky

Goddess of love doth shine bright in the skies
  As one planet blushes red among the stars
 The moon, surrounded by twinkling fireflies
 Looms ever so large to a distant Mars

 Venus, adorned in her beautiful glow
 Outshines Jupiter in the Milky Way
 The dark realm of Pluto is too faint to show
 But has five moons in orbital array

 Diamonds in the sky show off their glisters
 As my thoughts to the heavens take flight
 A cluster of stars called the seven sisters
 Twinkle brightly in an enchanted night

 Myths of the night sky are never too far
 I gaze in awe and wish upon a star
