Brave sister,
Bright, beautiful moon,
Lighting up the night sky,
Darkness all around,
What a wondrous gift,
Soft, forgiving and kind…
Your light most sublime,
Easing my worries,
Clearing my mind,
Guiding my meanderings,
In the gentlest of ways.
Oh sweet sister moon,
Where would I be,
Without you in my life?
Standing reservedly on the ground,
I peer upwards in wonder and awe…
Watching as you easily dispel,
The darkness which surrounds.
And I am so proud!
Without one graceless move,
Without one single sound,
Just your gentle, loving night light.
Shine on sister moon!
(Dedicated to my dearest sister Tree, love you!)
