She sweeps across the midnight sky
blending lovers into her embrace,
a canvas of indigo setting the stage
where insignificance builds castles in heaven.
She steers her ship and cloaks the fears
that glare beneath sun's rays,
her rudder sure and steady
navigating the night to dawn.
And when the time to weigh her anchor comes
for this mariner of the skies,
she softly croons to her wayward crew
to come dwell within her secure celestial sphere.

this was so soothing having a calming gentle sailing glide ~ 'sailor moon'
La Lune comes to croon then nestles safe in 'celestial sphere'

Hello
Hello sailor. But damn is that not one of the ways it was done. My how you capture this reader with such words and thoughts. Just another masterpiece I take for granted.
