The Cuddly Moon
I see you there staring down at us with a face that’s hard to read
I wonder, does what you’ve seen cause your heart to bleed
You’ve watched us learn and grow and even take flight to you
But you’ve watched us tear down our dignity and devour each other too
You’ve witnessed us gazing up at you in wonder and awe with open minds
Then watched us close them fast with pettiness of so many different kinds
No wonder your face almost has a bit of a tired and sad look to your gaze
Even with the great strides we’ve made these are not our better days
I see you there bright and full, your hope still lighting up the night
I wonder what would you say it would take to make our world alright
I know that you care for us because you are a giver and not a taker
That you would probably say to us, “If you all just knew my Maker”
I hope and pray that we figure it out and that we do so very soon
Or I fear that we will break your heart in two, you big old cuddly Moon
