Encounter with the Moon

The mad wind has quiet down and the decree has gone out of the town, something miraculous has taken place and I could hear the children screaming and shouting all over the place and the mood is slowly returning to the base.

The fire had burnt everything out of thee and there was nothing to hold onto except  a withered tree, the mountain is on the run and I have mission to complete before the sun comes up; so please give me some time to settle my mind.

The cloud has gone on before me and my spirit has set me free so I took a stroll in the morning air because I have something profound to share but when I look around you were not there and my heart began to fear so I turn my head towards the heaven above and there you were in the center of the sky radiating the symbol of love.

Two moons lying on top of each other conversing with one another unleash the symbolic answer. As far as my eyes could behold  it was for real, the dark moon and the white moon glue to the center of the sky and stood in striking distance from my roof.

I was speechless for a while, I had to witness this miracle before I die, it was another encounter with the unknown and I stood there with tears dripping from my eyes staring at two moons locked together and stationed over my roof.

Not a shade of darkness could be found it was just lights all around and I stood there with my conscience speaking to me beckoning you to come and set me free. It remains there for a while and as the sun starts coming out the moons disappeared underneath the clouds.

It was not like it was hidden in the night clouds and darkness was creeping all around, it wasn’t like it was a dream or I was walking in my sleep, it was broad daylight when I stumbled upon two moons lying in the sky in striking distance away from me.

What else is there waiting for me, what is over me that I cannot see, If you can see further than me when my back is turned, tell me what is going around in the galaxy and wait for me by the sea I have a message for thee.
