The Sun and the Moon

A Poem by The Simple Minded Poet
"

A love story between the Sun and the Moon

"

I caught the Sun marveling at the beauty of the Moon,
Though her glow wasn't as bright as his,
He admired her ushering and the motherly love she showed to her countless children.
She blushed as she took a peek at him making his way around the galaxy,

For every stride he took,
She became brighter and rounder,
Hinting at what a lovely item they'd make next to each other.

Afraid to say a word in front of her dark lover,
he smiled and made his way to his dear blue Sky.

 

The Moon told Venus she was inlove with the Sun:
"His warmth,his brightness,how he never runs out of energy,
 how he manages to squeeze light through the greyest of days,
 his strengths are my weaknesses,he.."

 

"...happens to be happily happy with the clarity of the blue Sky
 and the lovely make-up she puts on for him with the arrangement
 of the clouds..." interrupted Venus...

 

Reality hit the moon hard,
Causing her to lose three quarters of her weight,
Her diameter seemed to shrink over the course of the days thereafter,

But if only she knew...

The Sun has been secretly giving her the light that she desires,
When the Night is cold and her children hide behind the grey clouds,
He burns-in hope that his heat will reach her,
Keep her warm and cuddle her,
The only reason why he bothers to travel around earth is to see her,
Hoping that someday he'll pluck up the courage to go against galactical laws,
Trip out of his orbit and act as if he bumped into her,
Kiss her for a few seconds
Hold her spherical figure
Tell her how he feels
Hoping that she'll respond positively and they can disappear off into the cosmos...

 

But reality has hit the Sun too...
Earth is abandoned child constantly seeking his fatherly supervision,
The other planets would be in disarray if he ever went the wrong way...

 

This is a different type of love story..
The hope of the Sun,keeps him shining all day,
The hope the Moon has,keeps her glowing all night

Love this unexpected love. It mirrors a lot of life's love, choices and what brings us happiness.
May I ask what inspired you to write this one?
