Children of the Moon

Mother Moon, queen of the night; guardian of her children; you light the way so that they might envision with clarity, not provided by daylight. The formative years are spent in your kinder care; a seven-year nursery of enlightenment; charted in ephemeris, you guide the family in nurturing your young ones. With a blazing star for every child, you refresh with wisdom, the minds and hearts that build a child’s future; carving out lifetimes, engineering careers, guiding every step of life’s path; Along with earth, air, fire and water Mother Moon forges lives.

How much do we receive from the moon? Far far more than most of us realize that we do. The moon and the rose are the foremost symbols in our romance poems/thoughts, dreams and visuals. This is a great poem that has depth, beauty, great insight and so evident of a true poet's heart.. A fav, a true beauty.

I believe you have revealed what we all know subconsciously, but forget in the day time. "you light the way so that they might envision with clarity, not provided by daylight" - so well thought out, and provocative. Nice one.

This is wonderful. Yes, the Moon, the quiet one, working away in the dark to prepare her family for the rigors of 'life under the sun.' Super! :) gw
