From Me, Again

Dear Luna,

It's been too long, my distant love.

Life down here's not been kind.

Please know, I've kept the thought of you

Secure in heart and mind.

~

While turmoil threatens to erase

Our world and all we know,

You've stayed steadfast, unfailingly,

For us, down here, below.

~

And I have missed you, since I last

Gazed on your golden light.

Though borrowed, it still warms my heart

Here on this cold, dark night.

~

Alas, it seems we've all forgot

The lessons that you teach

Of balance, strength and fostering

The souls within our reach.

~

Tonight, I leave you with my vow

As witnessed by the stars

To spread the light you've shared, with all

On this grand world of ours,

~

And to return, to sit with you

Wherever I may be,

As long as life allows me to.

Your Faithful Servant,

Me
