Moonset

I left the house at 6:51am
I locked the door and turned around to head to my car

And this Moon

This Moon took my breath away

This Moon looked right through me

She was full, bright and bold

She was knowing

The morning fog could not dilute her luminescence

I was mesmerized
I stood and stared in awe

The timing and position

Everything lined up perfectly

As if You were waiting for me

Did You have a message?
Was this confrontation a fierce reminder?

She had an unspoken warning

I stood and stared…then shivered

As though I had no right to take in such beauty

Directly and for so long

I began my commute and she followed

The first fog of the season

Brought Grey Northern Lights

But only through Her presence

Her light poured over and through the land clouds

Light and dark grays danced gracefully in my atmosphere

But the beauty witnessed would not be possible without Her

This Moon sharply reminded me, as She began to set

and the sun began to rise without color in the sky
