Secular Moon

Secrecy of the brilliance upon the night so broad,
Everyone looks though each does not see your secret.
Circular reflection splendidly gifted from God.
Universe surrounding where you bravely sit.
Looking at the different shapes, you display.
Amazes those who truly see beyond simplicity,
Realms of possibilities you appear hidden in day.

Moonlight spreads upon the all in infinity.
Only those who choose to look deeply will see.
Only those with imagination will be guided by thee.
Now that your name has been ordained, you are free.

We take for granted so many of the beauties God has created for us, Cecil. My mother said my first word was "moon" and I do believe I remember saying it as I was cradled in my uncle's arms and staring up at its splendor. As a moonchild, it holds special significance for me. On my birthday tomorrow, I hope there is a moon I can look up at and marvel once more at this miracle of God's creation. God bless you! Love, Carolyn
