A meteor entered our sky in 1921
Theory of relativity made a tour of the globe
The flash of light liquefied the night
Pygmies and giants were startled alike
Brightness, speed and heat dazzled the eyes
Subsequent stalwarts could measure
Impacts of meteoric emissions, like
Elasticity of space, particle energy.
The meteor passed away,
But Albert Einstein glows for ever.*
