Moments of the Moon
It floated on a sea of velvet black. Puffs of foam concealed its luminosity. A cloud created sails and stars the lookouts’ lanterns. Cradled by vapor, it drifted away on the winds’ tide; its orange rays diminishing to a resplendent white that defied the consuming night. From that hour the moon was never the same.2003-07-14 : 7:26 p.m. We remember moments." Last night Emily and I went out driving from moon rise to midnight. When it began it was sitting like a fiery orange behind silhouetted trees and mountains. As it rose it was never fully covered by clouds but seemed to be using them as a cradle to reach into the heavens. The above was what I came up with as a description. Not the most poetic at all, but exactly how it appeared.
You have walked 98 miles. "The hobbits led their ponies up, winding round and round until they reached the top. There they stood and gazed about them. The air was gleaming and sunlit, but hazy; and they could not see to any great distance. Near at hand the mist was now almost gone; though here and there it lay in hollows of the wood, and to the south of them, out of a deep fold cutting right across the Forest, the fog still rose like steam or wisps of white smoke."
