Storm Hope

Deep in the storm drunk thunders crash, horizons bruise black and blue, but Earth still hopes for starlight, and the lighthouse of the moon.

Thanks Sara:) seeing the date on your message as the 3rd - still the 2nd here. I forget the date difference! Read an interesting moon fact yesterday that you might like: crescent new moon in northern hemisphere is on your right, down under on the left, and an arch at the equator. Reverse image for waning crescent. Same moon, different perspective!

loved the powerful image of horizons black and blue contrasted with the hope of starlight and the lighthouse of the moon. This is a simple but deep poem. Loved it so I'm faving it. Enjoy your weekend, Sara
