Once Again - Orion

 

                While walking my dog yesterday morning after returning from work, I saw Orion coming up over the roofs of the neighbor’s houses. It reminded me of a short poem I had written recently. If I may, I’d like to share it with you and hopefully you will catch what I was thinking about when I wrote it!

 

Once Again


Once again,

Only to be beaten, once again

By the glare of the lights

Populating peoples porches.
