__An excerpt from a serial poem entitled "Lune" __
I once had a conversation with the moon. I gazed up at her cratered complexion And expressed to her my gratitude.

“Hello, Lune, I must thank you!”

“Thank me? Yes, my dear, tell me your tales.”

“Reconnaissance! I have gotten out of bed. I have Laughed And Smiled Despite How much my soul still aches. I cannot ye see the sun, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">However, the horizon <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">Is indigo velvet.”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“Ah, my dear, it would appear as though you have indeed learned of hope. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">How do you feel, knowing this?”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“I feel like shouting! <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">It is as if I was deafened <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">But can once more hear the blue birds <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">Calling in the morning. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">I feel the way the bees, must feel <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">Upon sight of the first flower. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">My Kalani, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">She helped me.”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">She simply smiled at me and stated <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“You have leaned of hope, my dear. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">You know well the feeling of having <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">A reason to wake up, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">A reason to breathe. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">In honour, I present you with a gift.”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">As she finished speaking, ten golden and silver threads drifted <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">Down into my palms.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“Ô, merci Lune! But why gold and silver? <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">I thought that yellow represented hope.”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“It can, however I believe it to be golden and silver. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">Hope is delicate and beautiful, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">Like the wings of an angel. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">You must cherish it. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">Contained in those threads are filaments of an angel’s wings, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">For if you let it, hope will keep you aloft.”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“Lune, my tapisserie… <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">There is still a colour missing!”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“Ah, yes, there is…what would you like to do?”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“I shall wait until I have every colour of the rainbow, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">For I desire a complete tapisserie. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">I hope I shan’t have to wait long.”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">“Eagerness will get you nowhere, my dear, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">For now, I leave you. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">I shall come back to visit you <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">When I feel the time is right, <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">And I shall share more wisdom with you.”

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;">And so, I left.
