moon

the thing about the night is that

it misses the day

even though it's never seen it

the thing about the sun

is that it misses the moon

even though

it has only ever lit it

. you're the ultimate expert of the universe, coach ... and what you feel ... the beauty of nature feels ... what you express ... nature expresses ... you are so embedded in the universe ... and the universe is so embedded in you ... that i can hardly believe that you're real ... because you're so naturally perfect ... am proud to be your grasshopper ...

"it has only ever lit it"
the beauty of of all this is that knowingly orun knowingly the sun is doing a great job....lighting up the moon .....inspiring you to write great stuff like this....and making all of us light some one up....serah is correctin saying that you are the ultimate expert....SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT

- these things - that are the things - they glow like yellow lights - on stark nights - maybe - there are some nights that miss the moon too - but they always have your words - to lean on - because you know all of it - and you see through - those faces of psuedo bravery -

Simply stunning. I love the whole idea behind this poem... and the poem itself is pure magic.

well, maybe in the case of solar eclipses the sun does more than just light the moon :) - maybe he actually kisses it :).

of course it sees it, coming and going...oh, and i always like to say, if you want to know how bright the sun is, look at the moon

So beautiful in its simplicity... I love staring at the moon at night so I love the images and thoughts stirred up by this poem.
Well done here.
