Traveling Before Sunrise

yesterday, out the rv window

clouds hung high in the sky

above our heads

their dark underside

contrasting the lightening sky

today, the horizon is hazy,

but the sky is clear, and

all I see out the window,

hung like a child's mobile

from the bedroom ceiling

is this momentary vision,

before the sun comes up

and overpowers

the waning moon, now

just a few hours past full
