8/19/24 Sweet Lady Jane

Today is my youngest child/daughter's birthday! She is not a moonchild for she is a Leo and not a Cancer. But, she's the only one who lives hundreds of miles away from me and I miss her so.

Just remember when she was a little girl ....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A moonchild under moon shadow, hiding in the dark side of the moon or darkness of the night, why? Come out, come out and go under the moonlight and see the bright stars twinkling, like specks of gold all over the clear night sky, pure black like a soft warm blanket to comfort you and make you feel safe … hush now … shhhh …
