Her eye is fully open tonight, a great white orb casting silvery shadows below. She looks at me in the window when the rain-heavy clouds don't obstruct her view. I look back at her. We admire each other. She bathes everything in an other-worldly glow, so much so that I feel compelled to try and capture the beauty she makes. I fail but she is patient with me. Over the days and weeks to follow she will slowly close her great eye but when her rest is over she will look down at me full of splendor again and give me another chance. One day I will learn the secret of how to showcase her glory day and she will continue to nod off and awaken and share her gentle glow whether anyone cares to look her way or not.
