Moon Lady

I gazed at the moon perhaps because the night was cold and lonely, and my thoughts roamed freely, beyond our horizon. I gazed deeper, now with my eyes and mind: and that was all I needed to pierce through the burdened cloud... My soul startled and my heart leaped, my mind gaped that I found a woman right in the moon.. Her image visits my mind day after day.. She was bronzy Like the twilight... Around her breast was skillfully tired wrapper like those dyed In Eastern Nigeria (Nnewi). She backed a chilld that seems to be deep asleep or maybe lifeless.. She was steadily breaking a log of wood as if to prepare a meal for her husband Soon to be back from work.. This I couldn't understand... that when she stared at me, Her eyes sorrowed me... they sorrowed me back to earth... So I ask Grandma and she said The moon lady has been toiling for so long...as long as she(grandma) was a child.. This is my Question Did "Neil" travel with His high school lover to the moon??? If yes!! She has put to birth and awaiting His return..
