priya bhardwaj 2014 to the moon ... a disk , a globe , a crescent shape ; to dance , to fly on high ; waxing and waning , waning and waxing ; endless revolving cycles ; eternal lunar moods ; wandering , passing time languidly and aimlessly ; too distant , alone , far away from our perfect home ; yearning , pining , amongst ancient stars ; a reliable friend to brighten the night ; hot cider , a companion moon , and shelter from the cold ; together we both lament her loss ; together til the very last ; gazing upon the midnight heavens , that autumn weight , tormenting loss ; queen of the night ; protector from the darkness ; stirrer of passions ; pass the cider ; a toast to the moon p.w collier 2014 when love came knocking by sonya c. dodd cold .
