Moonstoned

When ready for a change
Feeling down/getting high
The gods must re-arrange
That moonstone in the sky.

Like the tides the seas
That flow and ebb to shore
The tide inside of us
Does all of that, and more.

Sometimes we get happy
And sometimes we get sad
The flow may bring the best
Or the worst of the bad.

One time we're light-headed
The next, can't lift our feet
The opposite, instead
When those tides retreat.

That moonstone in the heavens
Controls the will of man
It begins where it ends
And ends where it began.

Love your poetic expression here. We do feel the moon's presence in our lives in this way, no doubt.

Love,

"That moonstone in the heavens
Controls the will of man
It begins where it ends
And ends where it began."
