Tale of the Child’s Night
By: Heather Nanni
“May we look at the stars Mommy?”
“Yes Love”
Eyes Up
We were three
All the delights
two could see
The moon showed us
the silver platter and said,
“Come, come to me.
Oh how happy you will be.”
But one poor soul
The moon swallowed him whole
Some skip on stars
over night’s great river
But for others
that cannot be
They get caught by the Hunter
and carried out to the sea
Sky Gazing with My Grandmother
By: Heather Nanni
On warm summer days
we gazed up so high
and saw strange creatures
that danced in the sky
Such beauty up there
in that space above
I saw without fear
because of your love
But then came the night
It took you away
and left a sad child
who wished you would stay
And as the moon sits
on her silver throne-
you far beyond her
and me all alone
I think of those days
for which I now grieve
when sun reigned supreme
still you had to leave
And now the moon shines
benevolent light
Can you still see me
here in the night?
