the moon is my mother
from darkness I’m born
I’m aligned with the stars
and to brilliance I’m linked
Story continues below advertisement
the sun is my teacher
from radiance I’m taught
time complements me
like rain to the sky
I am graceful and elegant
like extraordinary god
yet clumsy and graceless
like a newborn giraffe
I am the sound of the ocean
crashing to shore
I am the thunder of lightning
and the flowers of the earth
I am the sad sound of death
and the drought of the dirt
I am the heat of the desert
and the cold of the tundra
I am the mightiest and the puniest.
