The morning night skies have been beautiful of late

The night morning skies of late have been beyond beautiful.

Beyond anything that can be described fully

Black, dark skies, like there is nothing beyond

Yet leaving me feeling there is everything beyond

Closing me to feel like we are enclosed in the nothingness

Then opening me again to feel like there is no enclosure because of the presence of the all

Infinite, glorious, huge, wow

Twinkling stars, abundant and bright 

A lone bright star large like an orb of light all on its own 

Sitting in the southwest corner of the dark sky

Holding court all on its own

Owning the sky full of stars

All radiating and casting their light in an otherwise black night.

In awe of the light these stars that look tiny to us from a distance 

But are huge in their own right shine down on us

And lighten up the blackest darkest night

Helping us to navigate through the darkness

Bringing us much needed light

Not a cloud in the sky to obscure the beauty and radiance of the stars

Illuminating that dark liquid ink black night

Showing us the magnificence of creation

Allowing me to see

There is something magical about a black sky filled with stars

Something that allows me to believe there is something much greater than me

Than us in the beyond

There is something much more than we could ever understand or fully comprehend

Something that allows light even in the darkest night

Something that adds to the mystery that is us

That is the all

Yet there is something sinister about a dark night with stars twinkling down on us as well

Almost as if the whole sky and stars could come crashing down on us

Destroy us in a flash

Great balls of fire

But that to me is the dichotomy of life

Sometimes depending on our vantage point

We can the beauty in all things 

Like the stars twinkling on a cloudless still night

Or we can see the darkness and little balls of fire in the sky 

And believe they can destroy without a thought

Nature has a funny way of showing the divide that exists within us all

A funny way of reminding us that at all times 

We have so much to draw upon 

Particularly when we think we are fumbling in the darkness

Reminding us through its presence and change

All we need to do is remember there is always a beginning 

And an ending 

With a journey in between

Sometimes that journey will be so dark that we feel we will never find the light

Then other times there will be so much light that we are never lost

And then sometimes we are stuck in the in between

In between the darkness and the light

In between the beginning and the end

And the journey feels endless

And just when we are about to give up

To lose hope

To question our faith

A dark sky filled with light opens for us

No clouds

No questions

Just clarity of the immenseness of the Universe we reside in

That is within us all

That is us all

Illustrating for us the possibility that exists for us all

Is within us all

Is us all

Allowing us to remember

There is a beginning and an ending

And a journey in between

How that journey begins and ends

Depends on how we view the dark sky filled with radiant light

The morning, night skies have been beautiful of late

Filled with promise

Possibility

And faith

Infinite wisdom on our doorsteps

Waiting for us to discover

To accept

The immenseness of our power

On a beautiful dark morning  night
