Same Moon

Running with the dog 
late this evening
sunset at my back, 
and low in the east
a  full moon 
greeting me 
as I crest  the last hill.

This moon
must be over you too,
shining bright
through your night
and perhaps reflecting
a bit of earthshine 
bringing my smile to you.

This is lovely, there is magic in knowing we are sharing the same moon although we are far apart.
