The Moon’s Blush

Posted on May 15, 2019 by Penny Wilson Writes

The Sun so loved the Moon. Her luminous smile set his heart aflame. His burning desire shone for all to see. But he yearned for the darkness. The Moon lit the night, paving the way for his dreams. The glow of her celestial presence would wash over him, cooling the flames. There were times when she would blush a deep red. As if she knew his thoughts. This is when he loved her the most. The Stars shared the night with the Moon, as the Sun never could. The Sun looked on; his desperate heart aching. He knew he would never be with the radiant beauty that he loved from afar. The Stars twinkled a “tisk, tisk”; for they had the wisdom of the heavens. The Sun loved in vain. He would wait for the night so that his dreams would carry him to his beloved.
