I saw Jupiter and all his moons
shine faintly on the ecliptic’s slant
and I said, as the wind
laid cloud and rain against the sky,
“Stay here with me as evening gathers,”
but every planet in the aching void
hid from me behind the overcast
in the invisible universe of night.

Inspired by a post online from a family member - of Jupiter and moons taken through the kitchen window,
Simply descriptive, really, except that I added the cloud layer.
