I WONDER IF by Becky Hemsley

"I WONDER IF"
by Becky Hemsley

I wonder if the moon

Is ever jealous of the sky

I wonder if she ever tires

Of waking in the night

I wonder if she longs to take

A break from making waves

And if she feels inferior

When in her smallest phase

I wonder if she sees the stars

And yearns to be as bright

And if she hates relying

On the sun to lend its light

I wonder if she wants to smooth

The craters on her face

And if she ever envies

All the other moons in space

Yes, I wonder if the moon

Is ever tempted to compare

And if she ever doubts

That she has earned her place up there

But most of all I wonder

If she's ever realised

That she's the one who wows us

Every time she's in the sky

*****

Our own magic is often the most difficult for us to see
