Supermoon

As if in a dream, the moon showed her face from behind a veil of delicate silky blue curtain....It was about to start its biggest entrance that year, the closest she would get to humans for a long time. A queen of the night, the shy moon kept the distance for fear of hurting them with her beauty, such a ravishing beauty that it would be almost a sin to look at her.... so, she chose to show her pale face at night when only some occasional revellers would barely notice her through the madness of drunkenness. And even so, she would sometimes wear the clothes of clouds, or hide herself behind the rain, the snow and the fog. And yet, that night she came out in all her beauty, a beauty that strange and heavy with mystery that many kept looking at her in awe, wondering about her beautiful face, about what it would be like to her closer...Would it be lethal, like Icarus' flight towards the Sun brought him his death? would it be like being burnt by a sharp freezing fire of ice? Or would it be a miraculous journey into a realm so unexpected and surreal, that not even our dreams could show us such wonders?

spring at night

It has snowed tonight- the blizzard of dozens flowers blossoming in spring... They say all cats are black at night. I say all trees in bloom are covered in snow at night. I am looking outside my window in the solitary night and all I see are what appear to be snowflakes gently dancing in the night breeze- and still despite my treacherous eyes, other sense tells me I'm wrong.

They must be petals thickly covering each branch in a very unique bond, as I can smell the daffodils and the fresh cherry flowers. It is definitely spring again, and despite the green gaining more and more ground each day, at night black and white take the power. I wonder which is stronger- the all covering dark, or rather the white- pale and yet capable of making itself seen in spite of the dark?

....and it all started from a pink tree gently dancing on the tune of wind on a spring night....
