when she's gone


the Sunshine, fiery hot - close enough to burn despite its distance -
anchors the beautiful blue-green globe
as it dances and spins and celebrates its
own true and wonderful life

while Moonlight, cool - distant and mysterious in it closeness -
reflecting the Sunshine’s own true light
circles the fragile sphere as it shakes and floods
fearing it might break apart at any moment

carving an eternal path
in the unbreakable embrace
wedded for all eternity
basking in the light and love and warmth
of Sunshine

look only to Moonlight as a reminder of
the warmth Sunshine brings

forever
