Moon Gazing

Gazing at the moon’s beauty Assures me great certainty: This bright celestial wonder Appears through God’s grand order. Its fullness brings warm delight Midst night’s* glow of subdued light Offering serene moments Meditative engagements. Beholding moon’s bashful smile Makes my muse linger awhile On lunar news: facts or fake Like Halloween myths at stake. Yet lovely moon’s gracious gleam Heralds Almighty truth’s beam He not just watches above Since He’s nigh with His whole love.
*Genesis 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. October 2, 2019 1st place, "Halloween Moon" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Chantelle Anne Cooke; judged on 10/5/2019.
