Looking Up
Walking around in the night in the dark
Looking down at the ground
Going through a forest of pine and snow
Moving slow as the hill rise higher
Coming up to a clearing
Feeling slow
Feeling cold
Seeing your breath
Wanting to go back to the cabin and sit by the fire
Loosing feeling in limbs but you keep pushing
Keep moving
And then you just stop
Right in the middle
Snow knee high
Fingers frozen
But looking up
Staring at the dark black sky
Looking at the stars
No clouds just miles of space
But then it changes
Black turning to a deep blue
Then the sky turns bright
The sky has bright streaks of light
Lots of colors blanket the earth
Red
Green
Blue
So beautiful
So stunning
Moving around like living art
Mesmerizing it transcends you
Forgetting in the cold
Feeling warm inside
Only lasting for a short time and then it’s over
Wishing to see it again
Wanting to capture the moment
