Aspects of moon

The full new moon at 3 AM is gleaming white and high in the sky

 - a small, bright globe pinned to the plush black of space.

 At 6 AM it is a large orange ball sitting low to the horizon behind a

 scrim of clouds in a brightening sky ratcheting toward dawn.

 Later, hidden by the sun's dazzle, I can only imagine its latest version.
