City Lights Poem by Evan Esworthy
City Lights
Flash, shine, glow
the clock hand strikes at nine.
The city lights illuminate
and I just freeze in time.
Cars whiz by
wheels turn miles and miles an hour.
But if you hike to the peak
you'll be in a light shower.
So here I wait until the day
that all the smog will fall.
Then once again we will, my friend
sleep under a starry shawl.
POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I wrote this poem because I love to go up in the mountains and watch meteor showers, eclipses, and all the other astronomical phenomena you can't see in metro Atlanta. I got my inspiration one night as I watched the cars drive down the freeway and, I couldn't help but start to think about the mountains, constellations, and what is keeping us from them.
