I picked her up 8 PM
As she locked the front door
I stood aside breathing in deeply
the cold winter sky
Where are we off to?
she asked excitedly
Pointing up I blurted
Orion Nebula, a star-forming region
below Rigel and Betelgeuse
there’s some folks I’d like you to meet
After staring at me long and hard, she said
Wait here a moment, let me grab my gloves

Thank you. A good time was had by all. Plus we went to the diner afterwards. 🙂 —CC
Aw, that sounds lovely. Orion is my favorite constellation which made the piece even more interesting for me.
