Light defeats the musk

The sun is the most powerful thing.
It gives us light and life,
Nothing can change that.
But the man sat on the moon,
is carving it to change the night’s light.

Will the plants still grow?
Will water still rain?
Unknown changes in an unknown terrain. 
We are sat on the ground looking up 
Lost in a maze that can only be solved from up above.

Climbing on each other’s shoulders
We can reach the moon
And build it back up
Regaining vision
The musky view gone.

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."
