True, nothing fascinates us more than man-created starbursts in the sky ... makes us feel god-like I suppose. Well captured herein, Fay!

A fine write Fay. happy New Year to you too. This seems like a hymn-poem, but with a metre of 9.5.5.5.10. or almost that. I don\'t know any hymns with this metre, from my \'repertoire\'!
All are glad then - they won\'t me me singing! heehee.

Thanks FAY we shall all miss YOU ! Being (by training~ experience & study) An Environmental Scientist I have a COGNITIVE UNDERSTANDING of many of the Natural Phenomena you highlight in your first verse. I would stress that my knowledge does not diminish their Wonder & Mystery ~ in fact for me it enhances it !
Your second Verse Human Behaviour and Emotions the Behavioural Sciences of Psychology & Sociology in which (unlike the Physical Sciences) there are no ABSOLUTES & CERTAINTIES and conflicting Theories can be equally true in practice. SEA SALT is always NaCl never Na2Cl or NaCl2 ~ it always has Square Symmetry and the sodium ion is always Na+ and the chloride ion always Cl - The crystal structure is so well established that it has appeared on a UK Postage Stamp ! The Behaviour Sciences are fluid and Theories change from decade to decade which is what makes them so intrinsically exciting. I have studied SOC & PSYCH with the OU (and other Courses) but I am none the wiser and much of what I learned 10 years ago is now obsolete ! I learn about LOVE & LIFE ~ through my OWN MISTAKES and (honestly) I am getting better ~ AT BOTH ! Thanks for caring & sharing ~ HAPPY CHRISTMAS ~ Love under the Mistletoe ~ BRIAN XOX

Thank you for a wonderful tribute to the Memory of your Loved One. We all shed tears FAY at the homecall of a Loved One ~ BUT ~ We do not sorrow like those who have no hope in Eternal Life and a reunion in Glory !
