What do you see # 59 – 7 December 2020

Another beautiful image this week , Sadje…

( For visually challenged reader, the image shows three Cranes flying in the evening sky. You can see a waning gibbous moon behind the birds)

Do not ignore the words
of a departing spirit
They are filled with truth
Grandad went on about the moon
His favourite subject, a spy satellite.
a hollow place we go to
While we wait to be reborn
Do not let the silver orb
fool you with its beauty
There are more secrets there
Than the FBI and KGB put together
So far, she has kept them to herself
That is grandad’s opinion
As I look up, I like to think of him
Resting there
He is right about one thing
That silver orb is beautiful…

    I love the acceptance of Grandad’s odd notions, and despite all, the lingering warmth. <3

      That’s where lunacy originates from, too…

          Not bad… if the moon really is just a satellite…
