Have I ever told you the story, of how the moon fell in love with the sun?

Those compatible too. They truly are of opposite forms. But the moon loved the sun.

The moon gazed upon her raise of light and caught the sun at mornings delight.

For the sun was a sparkling child. Filled with bright smiles and shining eyes.

The moon took to those beautiful rays and thought about the sun for days.

And while the moon herself was a pale soft soul. She could not help but lean towards the sun and her glow.

To see a star so bright and bold. Was something the moon could hardly behold.

And so the moons watch the sun and fell ever so deeply in love.

She soon came to reflect the suns beautiful light and herself became such a delight.

For even though the moon was ever so shy. She let her love be known to everyone’s eye.

That even if she could not find the words to speak to the dazzling sun.

She could still dream of the deep eclipse of two souls, yet to come.
