Something Bigger Than Myself

Each day before dawn gazing up at the stars I truly hope to see if somewhere in the Universe a morning gift was left for me to restore my equilibrium from a restless painful night then as I look to my delight I spy my morning feast for the Cosmos sent its brightest star; she twinkles up above her name is Venus and just for me she wears her sparkling gown I adore her dazzling beauty as she takes away my breath The Sun is waiting in the wings to bring light to our day and like a trumpet serenade the skies will celebrate her rising in the east the sky prepares her morning overtures with a kaleidoscope of colours to infuse the daybreak sky hues of crimson, orange, vermilion are painted from an artiste’s palette as dramatically she makes her entrance; a shimmering golden orb Then finally at the end of her day she creates an impressive finale a cornucopia of her most vivid colours lights up the evening sky as wispy dancing clouds float by to soak up her vibrant hues then slowly she reclines to bed to view the biggest show of all This show is always different on each twenty eight day run a celebratory performance from iconic Mother Moon such a captivating sight to see this shimmering silver spherical globe she truly is my favorite and of her I am in awe I gaze at her for hours for she truly stole my heart she lifts my spirit she calms my soul she enlightens my life she is something bigger than myself Written 29th January 2019 Contest: Something Bigger Than Myself Sponsor: Line Gauthier 3rd place in this Premier Contest HONORABLE MENTION Contest YOUR CHOICE 7 any form, any theme Sponsor Brian Strand
