10 billion stars

three thirty in the morning
i get out of bed, start coffee
open the back door, look up -
ten billion stars rush
into my eyes

10 billion give or take a few....
a billion coffee grounds
can't match the starlight
that filters into your soul

every star its place
nothing falls
all rises

lost count counting
shoulda just looked
but was counting on a
abacus made of star stuff

I think that feeling/moment could be called an epiphany.

stars, pinholes in a black
backdrop, letting in light,
night is solace
