White Dwarf

The universe is rich with beauty and mystery. A stage set for the greatest show ever to be played.

A yellow sun,

Not unlike our own

Expends its energy

For a stellar show.

 

An angry red giant,

That overtakes its surroundings,

While radiant pressure-

Sends its outer shell flying.

 

A pearl contained within a floating sea;

A kaleidoscope of elements finally free.

Tendrils of gas that twist and turn

A veil over dim light- with passion that still burns.

 

The ocean of particles slowly degrade

Leaving a diamond; alone in dark space.

Trillions of years may pass along,

Obscuring this beauty behind the mask of the cosmos.
