Between Two Nowheres
It appeared in the night sky.
A thin bright streak of light,
a slash across the heavens,
instantly healed.
It came from nowhere.
For a few brief seconds
I stood in awe.
I would have missed it
had my gaze been on the ground.
No-one else saw.
Except a small child
who pointed skyward,
eyes alight and bright.
It came and vanished.
From nowhere to nowhere.
‘a small child who pointed skyward’ lovely image…
