A Moonless Night

I look up into the deep black ink of the night sky.

The endless expanse of black is a canvas onto which

stars are carefully pressed on,

one by one.

The night sky, in all its majesty, envelops me.

I have heard others talking about how they feel so

insignificant,

when compared to the vast elsewhere.

However, I am honored,

To have held witness,

to the incomparable glory of the universe
