ODE LOOKING METEORS - by Ed, between the lines
 I have been watching meteors
 for many a year but, lo,
 often I see one that just
 doesn't look quite so.
 
 I've noticed ones that do appear,
 as  a "normal meteor" but
'stead of the nice straight streak
 these just seem to "fizzle out"
 
{ like a fireworks. They appear to start " upward" and finish their burn
heading "down". Based on this it cant be something that was "earth launched"
such as fireworks, model rockets etc. The " meteor " does not start out like
a normal one then tend to break up but seems to fizzle from the start of
it's appearance.}
 
I've ne'er seen one like this so high
most are less half up the 'izon.
I've ne'er heard sound when they appear,
their distance - no surmisin'
 
I dinna ken this, but
Your sense is warmly sought.
An answer would be well recieved,
This mystery to be wrought.
 
 
Thanks, Ed - your msg Mused me greatly (or mebbe weakly ;)  ) - i hope you
get a better reply than this
