Another one from John’s book Shorts and Shots.
Heavenly bodies
The galleon moon
Sailing through the Winter sky
Tomorrow the frost.
The full moon is high
Reflections of hidden sun
Turning night to day.
Swooping hungry Owl
The hunters moon revealing
This evenings meal.
Darkness into light
Blue moon low over the sea
Rippling silver.
Behold the Great Bear
Master of the northern sky
Signpost for sailors.
Look to the night sky
Stars like a river of light
It’s the Milky Way.
The sky is alive
Autumn meteor shower
Falling like the rain.
Venus is rising
Lighting up the southern sky
Star of the morning.
Autumn sunset glow
Colours of the evening
Purple, red and green.
Fire is in the east
Clouds aglow orange and red
The sun is rising
The trees are smiling
Sunlight sparkles on the leaves
Summer here at last.
Sun is in hiding
Wind from the north sweeps the land
Winter is coming.
