Before Dawn

I am standing on the pier
looking west into the blackness of night
in the distance there are two
tiny lights shining on the river
to show the way for ships.

Looking east the sky is deep black
through the darkness I can see
tiny lights from the town are scattered
as if an angel sprinkled them.

Tiny fingers of silver and gold extend
from the river bank
toward me like fingers from the
Hand of God.
