this is the first of a series that Kethry and I are working on. . . Brother Sun and Sister Moon.

Sister Moon rises
shining bright in heaven's sky
the stars welcome her

I, her Brother Sun
have prepared the sky for her
she takes my place now

shine on Sister Moon
keep watch of Earth while I sleep
till I rise again

Sven this is sooo good! I was reluctant to post in response. But I have, and I've tried to match your metre and flow, however it's not nearly as well written as yours is.

Sven love, what can I say except that this is awesome. It truly is, and my how wonderful this is. Fomidable m'sieur, c'est tres tres bon,
As always, when English fails French fills the gaps.  
Really beautiful love it truly is. I'm now scampering off in the seach for Kethry's bon mot.
Take care love

I like the sun
Adore the moon
Can't wait to hear more
Of this celestial tune

Sven,
we've had the warm-up but I promised a true collaboration. You know... you write, I write
I've got an interesting title if you're up for the challenge!  
BTW I love your darkness poems.

Read Kethry's first, I'm sorry to say, but only because it should be read following yours. Well done by you both.
