I imagined that each star was it's own story with one or more people who were also looking at the blue moon, just as I. Then it occurred to me that there really were millions of people with their own stories looking at the same blue moon as me. Here are our stories:
The weather is perfect
The
night sky is clear
In the hazy glow
The
moonlight illuminates the magnolias so dear
Stars
shine like diamonds in the universe
Magnificent
houses silhouetted by the indigo sky
Live
Oaks hanging majestically
Moonlit
romance dripping off their leaves Casting
shadows of what will be
And perhaps on days gone by
A young man throwing it away
A child wondering whats next
A girl dreaming of what may come
Lovers dancing under the night sky
A
lover stands crying at the graveside of love
Old
men drinking bourbon, reminiscing
A
young woman giving birth
A
happy father cheers
Babies
crying
Couples
fighting
Dogs
barking
Deals being made
Vows
being broken
Food
is shared
As
friendship’s token
Another
lies sick in a hospital bed
Knowing
that soon, he too, will be dead
A
grandparent dies
A
young child passes
Families
are huddled, broken in ashes
 |
| My sister |
Old
women remembering their prime
An
old man smoking a cigar
The next fish to bite can't be far
An
old woman twirls in the breeze
Her
dress swinging in the wind
A
young couple skinnydipping
Moonlight
glistens thru drops of water splashing in the night
An
expecting mother waits longingly
Another
baby claims it’s right
All
under the blue moon on this beautiful starry night!
