When the Moons Came to Visit

One day, the moon’s relatives decided to pay a call.

Some brought their pet asteroids with them.

Some of us were enchanted.

Others tried to hide.

Still others panicked.

And felt Armageddon was upon us.

Parents held their young to reassure them.

Others stayed home and cuddled.

Lovers, of course, found it romantic.

And many found the moons conducive to profound meditation.

But some had difficulty navigating.

And Mr. Bear wondered if it might affect his hibernation.

Meanwhile, under the sea, all was peaceful.

And new life forms came into being.

The Moon Lilies loved it.

As did the blue wheat.

Moon bathing became popular.

And hidden away in the moon`s dark shadow, the moons partied like it was 1999.

Then, as suddenly as they had appeared, they vanished.

And to this day, we talk about it and hope they will return.
