The air thick with wonder, as I set my sights afar. This fleeting moment, so rare, so true,
The dragon’s blood trees, silent and grand, A cosmic dance, caught in view.
Towered like ancient sentinels, touched by the hand
Of time itself – tens of thousands of years, The exposure finished, the image glowed,
Roots entwined with history, wrapped in silent fears. A meteor’s path, a story it showed.
Yet the trees, eternal, stood unfazed,
I placed my camera with careful hands, As if they’d witnessed countless blazing days.
A tripod steady on the shifting sands. But to me, it was more than a streak of light –
The stars above, the light just right, It was the intersection of time, in the dead of night.
I set the stage for the perfect night.
And then, from the heavens, a streak of flame, For these trees had seen the skies alight,
A meteor, blazing – like a wild claim. While I, a brief traveler, captured the sight.
In that fleeting moment, history aligned,
It soared between the trees, leaving a trace, A memory forever etched in mind.
As if the stars had drawn its grace. And perhaps that’s the power, the gift we find –
I shouted for my friend to stay in place, To seize a moment, and leave the past behind.
