Venus is Beautiful Tonight

 

Venus is beautiful tonight, and so is Mars

Heaven’s husbandry 1 is generous this month

With a fine show of planets, stars, and dreams

To cheer us with their silent happiness

 

Tomorrow will be cold; cold rain will fall

From the husbandry of autumn clouds

Bathing the grasses, trees, gardens, and fields

Getting each sleepyhead ready for bed

 

We have our coffee and a little light jazz

Venus is beautiful tonight - and so are you

 

 

 

1 Macbeth II.i.v-vi.
