Meteor showers: a great grand spectacle!


There is a reason for the meteor showers
There is also a season for seeing them
Showers not soaked and felt like cloud showers
Visual Showers from meteor clouds, comet debris
Light streaks in the dark night sky

When the Earth passes closest  to
Debris of comet floating out there
Get attracted by Earth,enter, incinerate
producing light flashes, heavy light streaks
ranging from dozens to thousands per hour

When they enter,they come charging down
In succession, one, next , next and the next
Though they may fall in the day
It takes the dark night to see them falling
Sky watching astronomy lovers delight

They wait for the showers peak time
At the particular time of a year
When the showers become active
In the middle of a vibrant night
With light spots, light streaks in display

They take the name of the constellation nearest
Like perseid showers, Quadtrandids, lyrids,
Eta aquarids, Southern delta aquarids,Draconids,
Orionids,Southern taurids,Leonids,Geminids,
let’s go to a dark site, enjoy the super spectacle!

Yay! a cosmic fireworks fest in the middle of the night!
The much awaited much planned extravaganza
A thrilling eye catching luminous bonanza
A space pyrotechnics free display on show
the shooting stars show, the blooming lights show, enjoy!
