BLUE AND GREEN PLANET SEEKS


single white moon with blue shadows and a dark
side. Content to be overshadowed daily. Willing 
to always be present but often unseen, to be out-
shone and to reflect the shining light of the 
other—bigger, better, hotter, brighter. Has no 
problem being eclipsed, sometimes totally and is 
not afraid of the dark. Must be happy to wax. And 
wane. May be full monthly and rarely be blue. 
Must be content to cast a softer, gentler light. 
Willing to be paid in rituals, songs, sonnets and 
the whispers of young lovers.
