Moondance

  I could have gone one of two ways tonight, one you will like, and the other you won't? But I have been lobbying for the former, and since I have the pen, I'll tell you the good one. Any of you who live or work in my little quadrant of the world, and did not take full advantage of tonight's full moon, the word fool just doesn't seem to be strong enough?
  What a sky, and what weather to go with it! You know it's funny? But it seems that often, when I was out doing my worst on a given night, that at some point, I would look up, and a full moon was in the sky? I don't know why that is, but tonight's moon made old feelings start to stir. The strange thing about us night people, though we prefer the shadows, we are drawn to the light? Some of you will understand, when I say, that a full moon can be both a blessing and a curse? There are times at night when you would rather not be seen, and we stay more in the shadows, and then, the night sky is like a shadowed day! But then there are the other times, when we look up, usually when you grew tired of the pace, and looked full bright into that moon! Unlike the sun, you can look full on at the moon, and it rarely disappoints? Especially on a night like this one! A clear, deep blue sky, with the moon shining the clouds to their whitest, and that moon framed by those clouds through breaks which embroider the holes in the sky as the moon passes by!
