Our Celestial Crystal Ball

The Moon, our Celestial Crystal Ball: 
nightly – we hold hands, our circle
of thousands (perhaps millions); separated 
by great distance, by colors, by shapes
and sizes yet of one wonderment, we gaze...

and ask...and listen...and hope, and

pray and seem – unlike the sun, often

too bright and harsh, the Moon 
our dearest saint, the easiest to approach,
having never turned her face from her
children, those of the earth –  – does my
love love me...or not?
