Mystic Splendour

Sun, stars and moon,
Oceans, seas and rivers,
Venus, Earth and Mars.

Intergalactic mysteries,
seen and unseen,
rivers of flame and light,
colliding asteriods creating rainbows;
soaring stars on a fanastical path.

Beauty, heat and power,
mesmerizing, calling for contemplation,
Absolute mysteries to petty mortals.
What can we create
in comparison to such wonder?
to such Mystic Splendour?

I could gaze into this abyss
of grace, splendour and charm
for more than eternity!

Author notes

I hope this poem makes sense to you. It is what this stunning picture inspired me to write, and here is its link: http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll84/NooNi_NightStar/Fantasy%20and%20other%20pix/815.jpg
It is rather fragmentary.. but oh well.. i just hope it is coherent.

    Personally, you could do without the first stanza as it merely lists various (though interrelated) objects. After that, this piece is very descriptive with some lovely imagery. Best of luck!
