Sun Dogs
- DiscoveriaWhen freezing winds have claimed the sky
suspending ice within the air,
a curious sight may greet the eye:
two lights beside the sun's bright eye.A sun dog, mock sun, phantom sun:
bright spots of light on either side
as if there isn't only one
but two stars by the centre one.You'll see them when the sun sits low
upon the land; when morning comes,
against the sunrise they may glow,
or fade into the sunset's glow.So marvel at the triple sun -
the radiant parhelion.Posted: 2024 Nov 29
