lunaSea

dive in!

how could I know

that the Moon holds ten seas—

or two lakes, one of Sleep,

and the other, of Dreams?

or a Bay full of Rainbows

or Vapour; the breeze?

In celebration of the lunar landing July 20, 1969. Most of the lunar seas are joined together. Despite their name, the seas are plains of solidified lava which appear dark on the Moon’s disc.

the first human footprint, that vast giant leap

on solidified lava

(the secrets run deep)

Sea of Serenity, Ocean of Storms

remote aspirations; ethereal forms

when I peer past the shadow,

when light intervenes

the darkest, unbounded—

Tranquility Sea
