SHIMMERING ACROSS THE EBONY SKY,
LEAVING A TRAIL OF BLAZING ICE,
MAN ASKS THE QUESTION "WHY?"
DOES THIS VISITOR ONLY ENTICE
THE INHABITANTS OF PLANET EARTH,
WHO WATCH IT'S DANCE THROUGH THE STAR-SPECKLED HEAVENS.
THIS GLOWING, STREAMING PHENOMENON
THAT MYSTERIOUSLY ENCHANTS US
WHEN IT VISITS EVERY 76 YEARS
WE HAVE TO TAKE OUR CHANCES.
IT ENTHRALLS US AND FILLS US WITH QUESTIONS
YET MOST OF OUR ANSWERS ARE MERELY SUGGESIONS
ABOUT OUR PERPETUAL VISITOR................
HALLEY'S COMET!
BY ME......IN 1981.....
