A waning moon at daybreak
awakens, slips sleepily over the horizon
begins her transit when the day is new
left our nighttime dreams unilluminated.
Venus knows
it’s only a phase
soon enough she will wax
full over the horizon before
brother sun has bid goodnight
and fill our dreams with amazing stories.
