I saw a glow:
A glow of light.
A fleeting glow—
An incredible sight.
It was a star
In many tales.
It was a meteor
Science tells.
It was fast,
It formed an arc.
The light it cast
Got rid of the dark.
I made a wish
And thus hoped.
As it went swish,
Possibilities roped.
Didn't come true,
I hoped it would.
As it bid adieu,
Frozen I stood.
I took a final view:
A cursory one.
Of the yellow-white hue,
And waited for the sun.
Up came the sun
In all its glory.
The darkness had to run,
Seemingly sorry.
Apollo cruised.
Ra hurtled across.
The radiance suffused.
Showed Apep who's boss.
As the-night-after grew,
I wished again.
The chances were one in two...
It did rain.
