The moon;
she was shy and only shone in the darkness,
she whispered into the night and talked to the stars,
she watched over those who slept peacefully
wishing she could join them,
she was lonely.
No one noticed her.
The sun;
he was bold and spread his glorious light into the sky,
he sung out loud and harmonized with the birds,
he watched over those who danced and laughed together
wishing he could join them,
he was lonely.
Though everyone noticed him.
One day, a beautifully tragic day, the sun and moon collided.
So unexpectedly, so fortunately
and so perfectly timed.
For the moon was wishing not to shine anymore.
The sun felt sorry for the moon
and so every evening he let out a burst of colours across the sky
so that everyone would look up and see the moon,
shining in all her glory.
The moon returned the favour every morning by telling the birds to sing louder
so that everyone would wake to see the sun,
shining in all his glory.
The sun and moon loved each other so much
that they would each let the other have a moment to shine.
The sun would kiss everyone goodnight
and the moon would kiss everyone goodmorning.
Working so perfectly together,
they showed true unity and love.
