WELL DONE! Poetry - THE LAST TIME by J. B. Hogan
The Last Time by J. B. Hogan
I saw the night sky with
no light pollution was long
ago in the mountains
from the front porch of a
small cabin tucked away
beside a small lake in late
November and the air
was crisp, clean, and
clear and there were no
clouds and no moon and
the stars came down to
the horizon and there
were so many stars you
could barely make out
constellations and the
stars were so bright
it was overwhelming,
it felt like a celestial
wind was passing through
me and I was becoming
smaller and smaller and
yet at the same time
part of some enormous
magnificent, awe-inspiring,
even terrifying existence
that I did not understand
but gave me immense joy
to be the tiniest part of.
