I Am the Moon

I go down with the stars
As the sun comes up for dawn
Sometimes you can see me when the sun’s up
I am barely seen up high in the sky
Peeking through the clouds
For who am I?
When it’s night I will shine bright
For I am the moon
I give just enough light
So it’s not too dark for you to see
But not too bright
So you can sleep at night

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
