The Sun kissed me goodbye
with a parting ray and left me
to walk the woods alone
through green into gray.
Some time you can't see
the stars for the rain, but
come what may, I will follow
them until I find her light
and feel her warmth again.

I composed this while backpacking on the North Country Trail. The trail's symbol, which appears on its signposts, is Polaris: the North Star.
