shining

The waning crescent moon and Venus are very close together in the morning sky. So much so that even in total daylight it is possible to see Venus shining in the brighness. What I mean by that is that because they're so close, you can get a pretty good idea on the position of Venus at dawn which allows you to find it later in the day, during the daylight hours. The fact that Venus can be seen in the sky during broad daylight seems like it should be impossible, but there it is.

Into the twilight zendo
maple leaves
come dancing.
