sun & moon

There once was a sun who couldn't shine on everyone
Every second of every day, so at night he channeled his rays
Through a moon who appeared very hard on the surface
Who cold and cratered bored everyone to sleep, furtive
Enough to duck behind clouds, gleaming behind misty cowls
He didn't shine so much on darkness as made
The darkness shine; his hope was that when the sun climbed
Once more to its height in the blue expanse
It would find what it left subtly enhanced
