red in the shadow

three bright planets in a row
Venus beams, Jupiter gleams
faint Mars, red in the shadow;
Orion stands and Rigel streams
above beautiful stars that have no name

a sawed down fir, sends fingers into the sky
it waits celebration of Forgiveness
a hidden sacrifice of nature's miracle
three bright lights at five AM
and I have a day to gain
everything i have never done, not won
and the itch of each second, tingles...
