Comet in the sky
You smite me distant traveler
With some strange nostalgia,
Far away going away
Every night for a while.
Comet in the sky
Your light has tanned
My naked eye,
Touched my retina
With a new age,
Burrowed into my mind.
You surprise
Like a distant train
In the wilderness
Hurtling on its way.
Siberian crane
You fill me with compassion
For your lonely furious pilgrimage
To another millennium.
Visitor from another age,
Your searing glorious passage,
Primordial image,
Like a messiah come
To disturb our settled equilibrium.
