Poem: Celestial Secrets (A Pentorama)
The golden orb of light that never fails to shine
The crimson bedazzles in the expanse of blue skies
Fierce, gigantic, indiscernible
Yet glistening, nourishing, revitalizing
I wonder the secret of unvanquished Sun
The glitterati that embellishes the sky as bride
Quietly extenuating the murkiness of night
Distant, massive, capricious
Yet omnipresent, iridescent, ethereal
I wonder the secret of luminescent stars
Aboding millions of galaxies, planets and stars
Creating atoms, energy, frequency in astral
Incomprehensible, enigmatic, phenomenal
Yet sacrosanct, evolving, abundant
I wonder the secret of mystical Universe
Infinite emotions emerge and elapse
A connection of mind, body, soul and universe
Insatiable, irrational, impulsive
Yet affectionate, passionate, compassionate
I wonder the secret of magnanimity of heart
