I love the moon. We as Buddhists have special meaning especially regarding the full moon days. Wonderful memories with your son 🙂

Awesome poem! And that photo’s pretty cool, too. I love the moon. I’ve always found it to be far more charming than the sun.

Yes, the moon sponsors mystery but the sun is repeated alpha and omega.

That’s a nice poem. I bet you’d be less inclined to hold him up to look at the moon nowadays, though. 🙂

I saw the Super Moon coming back from night shift this morning, which will never happen again until I’m long dead and forgotten … so me was glad to see it from this perspective, friend Carlos … Next time will be the other perspective … Heaven (prolly pretty close … hallelujah, praise the lord and pass the ammunition and things ) or Hell (prolly pretty invisible cuz of all da artificial lights and things … o well, maybe next time?) … Love, cat.

I never really get to see this stuff esp meteor showers because of cloud cover. But in a coupla weeks the Christmas lights will be up and that’s better.
