There is a different feeling you perceive when you walk in the bright sunshine at noon
than you get while walking in the evening
when that same sunlight is reflected off the moon.
Daytime sunshine is ubiquitous…making everything it lands on bright.
Sunlight reflected off the moon is softer…gentler
as it shares sky with the night.
Sunlight reflected off the moon is more subtle than the sunlight of the day
as it coaxes the shadows to dance and invites the owls and rabbits out to play.
Sunlight in the day is much louder…it’s when most people are awake
but often you don’t hear a peep….
when the sun is reflected off the moon…and most people are asleep.
Love may plant her seed in daylight…and may blossom more in June
but in every season..every touch…every hug…every kiss…
Is enhanced by sunlight reflected off the moon.
I know without the sun…we’d never see the moon…
She’d never cross our line of sight…
But…without the moon
the sun
has no way of lighting up the night.
It’s obvious how the sun and moon are wonderfully intertwined…
how every evening as the earth revolves they need each other to shine
Yes, I love the sun…watching her rise and set…how she covers the earth at noon
but I think I love her most…when she’s reflected off the moon
