The Sun and Moon

The sun and moon, though worlds apart, in harmony they spin/Circling the earth, they weave the threads of life within/The sun's warm embrace awakens dawn's first light/While the moon's gentle glow guards the quiet night/Together they dance, different yet intertwined/Breathing life into earth, in a cosmic design
