A Heavenly Trio

The crescent moon
Shines bright in the sky
As Venus and Jupiter,
Make a rare appearance
A beautiful trio
Under dark heavens
December 1, 2008,
Clear chilly night

If you missed this glorious show,
May 11, 2011 will be the next time the trio
Makes a manifestation so close together

I got an anonymous tipoff by text message

rushed outside and saw them making a smiley face with the moon, another night, I didn't see, the y were in front of each other and it looked like a supernova. Ah the heavens, heavenly, sublimely unreachable, for now cheers, Jess "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety" Benjamin Franklin, wonder what he would think of the Patriot Act.
