Oh
wow, this
is my moon.
She is always beautiful
from very thin to full
and often she’s so, so clear.
You’ll find her from north to south,
but we have only seen her lovely front.
However, now we have seen her wonderful dark side,
and we believe that she’ll start to sing a melody.

Honestly, I’m grateful she belongs to nobody but Mother Earth! Still, it’s beautiful and helps us transition from lunatic to lunar!! 😉😅
I really enjoy the visuals in the Pink Floyd video.💖

Aha, ‘from lunatic to lunar’ – good one, Aladin. However, don’t mention that Luna (giggling). 🐈⬛
Also, we mention Pink Floyd really recently – another good one! 🩷✨

Very nice poem, Chris! And “The Great Gig in the Sky” has one of rock music’s greatest vocals ever, from Clare Torrey.
