moon in morning skyq

I look up and my breath catches.

A pale disc among the clouds
in a light blue sky
tells me
beauty, mystery 
have always been there
had I eyes to see it
The tides rise 
to its hypnotic pull all day

Reminding me that
Orion's Belt, Cassiopeia, 
the North Star, my guiding lights
have actually always been there too 
waiting for darkness to show themselves, 

like my parents 
always ready to support me 
at the slightest twitch of need 
fading back to the background 
otherwise 0



  
even when the sun beams
for the sea doesn't need to see it
to believe in its light
and
