I have a very special moon birthday this year. Not only will I be 59 on the 20 July and a Cancerian but I celebrate the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. My 9th birthday was the best ever. 🌝

An orange balloon
A rising moon
Takes over from the sun
That’s done it’s best
As it sets in the West
To make room for Friday fun

Well … the balloon reference comes from an exchange this morning when I was (briefly) ‘the balloon man’.
I was sitting in a hotel lobby in Canberra at about 5AM reading alone and a young couple approached me.
“Hi,” they said
“Hello,” I replied.
There was an awkward few moments of silence.
“How’s it going?” the young man asked.
“Fine,” I informed him.
Another awkward silence.
Finally he asked, “Are you the balloon man?”
It turns out they were going on an early morning hot air balloon excursion – but for a little while before dawn things were a bit surreal.

The moon shines
In the dark dark sky
It grows bigger, it grows smaller
As kids we asked ‘why’
The moon shines
In the dark dark sky
It stays there throughout it all
Always there to say hi
The moon shines
The moon shines
It never,
Never sits and whines
I sit by the moonlight
I see how it’s always there
The brightness shining
No matter what or where
The moon stays
Through it all
There is always someone
To call
The moon shines
In the dark dark sky
It’s always there
The bit of light, oh my
The moon shines
The moon shines
In the dark
In the dark dark sky
