If you desire to own the moon,
will that ever come true?
If it could, then it's not only for you Because the whole world shares only one moon.
If the moon isn't there,
Will something take its place either?
So whatever is worldly isn't for you,
And the moon is yours and not only ours.

What a beautiful thought and yet such a poignant question in a world full of greed and illusion of ownership. We own nothing ownership such a strange thought where once people thought they owned other people as slaves, now no longer accepted. Where people thought they owned land that belongs to no one. Today people rob, connive, and murder for wealth that belongs to no one. Even love that is free people lie, impersonate and kill over. No one owns a heart, a soul, a grain of sand it is there if we share but no one takes it with them when they are gone. A fave

Thank you so much. The Moon is my favourite too!!! If you would like to read, I've written more about the moon, especially a love letter of Waterlily to the Moon... Check it out!!!
Imagine if our world was designed to have two moons or even more- what an exponential reality in many, many facets🕊️🙏🏻

Thank you so much!!!
In todays world of greed I have no doubt there are those who would want it all for themselves, what would we do without it, a difficult question, enjoyed the read
Thank you for the read and feedback!! Much appreciated!!
You are very welcome
I see the moon here is a metaphor for owning the impossible dream.Some wisdom is sprinkled on the argument by saying even if you were to possess the impossible you would have to share it. This made me think
Thank you so much for the read, & thoughtful feedback!!! Much appreciated!!!
True Salvia, the moon is for us all to admire at all times.
