The man in the moon



THE MAN IN THE MOON

The moon rested on
his shoulders and then
the man whispered in
his ear you are way
stronger than  I have
ever dared to be darling

So hold your head high
and be very proud for
you have survived that
very storm that was meant
to break your very being
so smile.
