Planet

Drabble w/original art

The night glowed brighter than any lantern, the sky alive with scattered jewels. Stars shimmered like whispers, but it was the planets that stole your breath: Venus gleaming, Jupiter bold, Mars burning faintly red. Their light stretched across the heavens, spilling onto the water behind you. The lake mirrored it all, a canvas of shifting brilliance, every ripple bending galaxies into liquid motion. You turned, caught between two skies, one above, one below, unable to tell which was more real. For a moment, you belonged to both, suspended in the quiet wonder of a night where even the planets chose to shine.
