Daytime Moon

 

Coming home
I look up
and see the moon
in daytime
a marble in the sky
 
as clear as glass
blending in
with clouds drifting by
unexpected yet
remarkable
 
its solid shape
so round and perfect
a watchful eye
sitting up there
in the blue sky
 
a moon in tune
with our revolving
a moon
that spoke of time
and eternity
 
we must give praise
to such a moon
that faithfully follows us
a friend
that rises to the occasion.

When I was a boy I was taught that the moon was made of cheese but there again I was a gullible child.
Thanks for this
