Comet C2020F3 Neowise – Far Traveler
From July, 2020: Far Traveler Far Traveler, where have you been? Across the void and back again? Your journey’s steeped so deep in time Appearance, you do make sublime Go hurtle quick ’round bright orb Eccentric path that brought you toward While solar force extracts a toll And leaves your icy form less wholeSo if you survive through this plight Back to the “cloud” will be your flight Years before return might be Seven thousand, possiblyAnd if your dust and ice return That coma’s nucleus will burn Referred you are as space debris Yet your past does seem a key From whence the solar system came Shaped by the hand of Holy Name. ~ Poem and Comet C2020F3 Neowise capture, Far Traveler © Jerry L.
