David, I remember marveling at the daytime moon as a young child. Its magic never wanes. The photo and the poem are both gorgeous and inspiring. Have a great day! โค
๐ Cheryl, you too! ๐
Every time I see the moon in the morning sky, I think of a description in a short story by Flannery O’Connor: “The pale, useless moon.” That’s always stuck with me for some reason. Great poem, David ๐
I’ll see if I can find it online…
