Does Mother Moon Sleep

Last night I fell into a deep sleep, my cat precious slept with me. I could swear that old Mother Moon, slept with us, I swear, it’s true. Mother Moon she’s truly wise, but she get’s tired, I surmise. The thing that puzzles me the most, when she’s asleep, how does she glow? Perhaps she’s playing a trick on me, I wonder if Precious ever sees, her opening her eyes during the night; boy, that would be funny, alright. I’ll wait awhile, pretending I’m asleep, then when Moon isn’t looking, I’ll take a peek. I’ll see if I can catch her open eyes, I’ll bet she’ll get a big surprise!

You had a bed full of companions, but oh WOW, Mother Moons presence must have been pure delight for you. i would think that keeping her eyes closed at night is part of the agreement of her existence. Maybe i'll help you out one night, for now you've peaked my curiosity A great write MLK. Hugs and Blessings, JENNIFER.
