Satellite cruising by
Unblinking
Steady light
It’s my dad saying ‘hi’
“Hi, Dad.”

When I was a kid, my dad would take me and my brother in our back yard in northwest Ohio and star gaze. We had a small telescope, but he also showed us how to ID somethings with the naked eye. He taught me what a satellite looks like.
Since he died, satellites have become Dad. I saw one when I was jogging tonight, and it was good to see him again. It’s nice to know he’s watching over me…
