Fall sky
Late November,
The days are getting shorter.
Yellow sun in a pale blue sky,
gives way to the Fall night,
Crisp cool air blown in by the wind.
Black sky,
brightened by the triangle of the moon, Jupiter, and Saturn.
The kind of night that makes you happy to be alive.
The kind of night that gives you hope that everything will be all right.
The kind of night that makes you want to find a dark place to look at the stars.
Sundown by five is early.
Thank goodness for the beauty of this night.
