final expedition
it's getting too cold to be stargazing
snow falls early on the lake
so far we've dodged that bullet
but i can almost smell it on jack frost's breath
as it comes whipping round the corners of the cabin
howling in the key of frigid
i walked out to the rocks
all painted in gaudy cambrian colors
and stood under the long night moon
to see the skyshow one last time
before frostbite weather sets in
i was not disappointed
the stars
wrapped in clouds of tulle smeared across an inky sky
danced a winter ballet
as cold diana lit the lake with her frosty smile
i didn't last long
a sudden onshore gust cut right through my clothes
and i caught the scent of eternity
as my blood iced and my skin prickled
as though i'd stuck a fork in a light socket
shivering i trudged home
thinking of all the loved ones lying in the earth
never more to see the stars
but then smiled as i remembered
they are the stars

The moon shines on the wintry waters of Lake Superior at Grand Marais, Minnesota as the stars dance in the clouds. Reimagined and painted from a photograph by Brian Coppola.
