A Song to Sister Moon
The moon is calling out to me
in a blast of cold night air,
her beams are reaching out for me
in an embrace of sweet ascent.
What is it about sister moon
that calls to us as she governs her starry children?
Is it the invitation of her far away, unreachable glide?
Or perhaps it's the coolness of her deep, distant silence.
Whatever it may be that lures us to reach up to her,
I say shine! shine! shine! oh celestial madame,
your beauty enthralls me as I bathe in the mysteries of your dark unfathomable domain,
your wisdom illuminates me
as a contemplate your quiet, limitless refrain.
Shine! shine! shine! oh sister moon,
on me, your humble, awestruck admirer.
