Voices of the Stars

After the river
spends the night
whispering, listening
beneath a ceiling
of stars,

I take an early
morning walk
with the river
still flowing
in smooth silence.

The silky skin
of water
now putting on
the soft fabric
of dawn.

Now dressed in daylight.
Hesitant to share
the nightly secrets
heard from the voices
of the stars.
