FEBRUARY EVENING SKY
By Richard M. Grove
There is hope on the horizon,
with our setting sun,
5:05pm,
the amber beam of her brilliance,
still unset,
inches from disappearing,
over the blanketed silver hills,
of the still winter landscape.
Minutes later,
Venus and Saturn,
bright in the western sky.
Venus in her brilliant glory.
Saturn, a pin prick,
saddled fatefully beside her wonderment.
Both reflecting the sun's now set resplendence.
