17 January: Found Poetry

night sky, full moon, lake with hills and mountains and a person standing in the water

Night’s Speed

We are not aware of time passing,
night’s time flies at different speed.
Not the speed of fragrance.
Nor an incense nose.

And we woke
without an alarm clock,
rose to the stillness of quiet stars.
