Before The Dawn

Venus to the left
Jupiter to the right of
A waning sliver of moon

Waving to red Antares
As if to say "Come,
Join my pale light."

Low in the Southeast lie
The gems and broach
Of the sky
Visit me this
Cold, cold morn
Leaving me to sigh.

Gracious is this beauty
Blessed to wake, am I
To find a bit of magic
Beneath this dazzling high.

There's a certain peace that you can get from looking at the sky in the pre-dawn hours. The kind that pauses you as you take a deep breath, fully exhale and contentedly acknowledge just how small we are in the order of the cosmos. Enjoyed your reflection, K. Will take a little minute to look up when I head out in the morning.
