the moon
stands in
the doorway of
his sky
I seeist the
and fear the not
for the vastness is my ally
the first streaks of dawn
my crusader
the sun's first breaths of light
give hope
to the reverence of the night that
came before
and stood all agape in mine eyes'
fullest stare
and looked back at me as I pondered
the truth that lives on
in the grace of every last star
we are part of what God shows us
every few hours that rush by in the night sky
beings of light
but we are the ones he never lets die
those stars twinkle for us
in envy
didn't you know?................................
