the world is dark.
shutters open.
the sky’s glacial pool opens.
three morning stars laugh
over the horizon line.
* * *
this copse of time
this stand of hours
………..between nows
becomes a minute
………..thicket
bristling towards the moon.
Horizon lines: by Bonnie McClellan
Copse of time Stand of hours

Thanks Adina, I live with so many ‘time telling’ devices…
Love This poem! Edging between darkness and time, between Happy Morning stars and time. The mystery of the universe.

Thanks so much, it’s the fruit of waking up at 4:30 in the morning…
