Moon.
Earth
moon.
Binary
system.
Steadies
things.
Holds
in place.
Larger
than
most.
Shepards
seasons,
one
to the
next.
Moves
oceans,
hearts
and minds.
Encouraged
life
to twitch,
move and
shake.
Mysterious.
Dictates
poetry.
Guides
passion.
Shapes
he­arts
and minds.
Generation
after
generation.
Countless
lovers
falling
unde­r its
spell.
Stepping
stone.
A place
to visit.
Set up
shop.
Explore.
The
highest
mountain.
Within
reach.
Launching
p­ad
to the
great
beyond.
Humanity’s
hand up.
No moon.
No life
as we
know it!
