The moon ‘wanted more of my night’ (hat tip to line
from Dar Williams’ song ‘Calling The Moon’).
No matter how much I tried to go back to sleep, her pull eventually
brought me to the window. Crickets and
other night creatures were a-buzz in a chorus of ‘Brava!’ while the moon took
center stage. The more my eyes adjusted,
I could even see a few stars in the sky…in supporting roles.
The last verse of Dar Williams’ song kept
playing over and over, in my mind:
“Calling the moon,
'Cause I know what it's
worth,
To tug at the seas and illumine the earth,
Oh, I am calling the moon,
Oh, I am calling the moon.”
