“Half naked but still came for me
Half inked in the dark cloud
the moon looked at me
I talk to it everyday
It listens to everything I say
Never complains for anything
Makes me all happy and gay
Sometimes it seems like
the moon is going down
But it is the king of the night sky
and no illusion can take away its crown”

Flowing, flexible and soft. Subtly powerful and open. Wild and serene. Able to accept all changes, yet still led by the pull of steady tides. It is enough.”
