There are many gifts in life
some come as surprises
others come as hope.
With twenty heartfelt wishes,
or merely twenty blinks of an eye,
life goes too quickly by.
But the moon and I know.
You were there beside me
on my troubled shores.
You held my hand
until I could safely step
across the moonlit bay.
In a setting sun or rising moon,
I only knew
glimmers of who I could become.
But you . . .
You knew intuitively and accepted
me entirely for who I am.
I was found in our forever-wishes and talks of hope.
All for one and one for all, us, upon this bright-blue sky day
in only a half-moon moment away!
