The Moon’s Cratered Face

mmmcontest These are two pictures that I took several years ago and combined in a photo editing program. I was just playing around.

Today I wrote a poem about the moon and I was reminded of this picture.

Here is the poem:

Watching the glow of the moon in the night sky has fascinated humans for centuries. Animals in the wild innately follow her cycles. She controls the tides which can wash life away or bring it to shore.

Upon inspection at higher resolution, one can’t miss the craters on her face. This is a price she has had to pay to protect our earth and hold our lives within her grasp.

My name is Katherine J. Krein. I lost my father in June of 2013, and then I lost my mother in November of the same year. After they both died I went through a mind-warping number obsession that has taken me years to control. This is my story. It is now 2025. I still use this site to post some poems and thoughts. My obsession has faded, however, I still notice the numbers. Faith, hope, and love is what guides me now.
