The moon opens her warm pale mouth, gripping Earth by the scruff of her leaf-fuzzed neck,
Carrying the wriggling baby over bright golden fields of stars.

As the round little baby yawns, stretching stubby arms,
And curls into a ball at Mama's soft pulsing side
Closing glossy blue eyes to dream the shadows away—
Under Mama's loving gaze.
