Our Moon

Luna the Moon Earth's satellite My, she looks so lovely and bright She lightens our lands In her nightly gleam This heavenly object in orbit dream She's pitted and scarred Through eons of hits But still above us she patiently sits Her ability to control our oceans and seas Is quite a feat, considering where she! To have the grace to invite us to land To take her rocks and her lunar sands So if we decide to habitat the Moon She's the bride and man the groom This beauty in the sky who shines at night For millions of years such a wonderful sight.

It is amazing how the moon effects the tides,etc. Many don't know how it affects us also. When it is full we don't sleep as well. Women feel puffy. It is a beautiful sight. When I saw the lunar eclipse, I was awe struck. Thanks for writing this one. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for the comments on my poem The Spirit Flows. Keep writing. Sara

Very nice image of "Luna," James, and I like the way you give life via personification to Earth's revolving moon.
