Poetic Dose: Calaguas Sky

#365daysofpoetry Day 74

She said, "Have you looked up yet?"
I shook my head and then did.
There, above me, 
as far as the eyes could see,
Stars as numerous as the sands on the beach.
And then ...
as plain as the brightest constellations,
The Milky Way
in all its quiet resplendent glory.
I felt infinitely small then
And my "wisdom", suddenly laughable.
