As I gazed up at the night sky.The shimmering stars shine aboveme a cool breeze caressed my face,like a comforting hand I couldnot see.I sat with a mug of coffee, andspent some time as I pondered about.I sat here, at the same time everynight. As time passed by, as it cutthe darkness, like a razor sharp knife.I put pen to paper, as I wrote bylamplight. Whilst I gazed at thisamulet of pure shimmering white.I can not seam to find the words, tosay what I felt inside. It took thefortunes of the brave, to travel there,As two planets collide.This silvery spherical presence, loomsover our Earth, like a guardian ofthe darkest night.As it pulls the tides and watches overnocternal creatures, as they monitorthe landscape, just they take flight.Sending a message to the moon, is harderthan you think. I don't have access toto a rocket ship. So I'll never landon the surface and explore the creators,so I could seek out the moon's missinglink.As I sat here and basked in her glory.This spirit of the darkness, thatsurrenders her secrets; as she shinesbeams of light upon us during times ofdarkness.I looked from my chair, as I wrote this.As an ode to the stars. Or a sonnet thatis penned in the night.I watch as planets orbit around us.Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Mars.If I was up there,upon that lunar wonderI would swim in the sea of tranquility.As the stars reflected in the ice onthe dark side, as it cracks and splits,Like thunder.I sent a message to the moon, to tellthose that reside there, who we are.They watch us, as humankind reachesfor the stars. Setting out to explorespace, in a quest to find another star.I imagion an advanced race, as theywatch us from afar. Observing our planetas a guardian of the universe. Protectedby a burning star.
