THIS NIGHT SO DARK

Dan Close
June 10, 2019
Poetry

This night so dark I cannot see your face
This moonless night, without a trace of light except for stars

Where and why do the wild geese fly
When all is dark in the nighttime sky?

Orion with his sword and shield
strides toward the zenith

pushing the red-eyed Taurean
into the West.
