More From Les Brown

There was just one moon. that familiar, yellow, solitary moon. the same moon that silently floated over fields of pampas grass, the moon that rose--a gleaming, round saucer--over the calm surface of lakes, that tranquilly beamed down on the rooftops of fast-asleep houses. the same moon that brought the high tide to shore, that softly shone on the fur of animals and enveloped and protected travelers at night. the moon that, as a crescent, shaved slivers from the soul--or, as a new moon, silently bathed the earth in its own loneliness. that moon.
Loneliness Animal Moon
People have stars, but they aren't the same. for travelers, the stars are guides. for other people, they're nothing but tiny lights. and for still others, for scholars, they're problems... but all those stars are silent stars. you, though, you'll have stars like nobody else... since i'll be laughing on one of them, for you it'll be as if all the stars are laughing. you'll have stars that can laugh!... and it'll be as if i had given you, instead of stars, a lot of tiny bells that know how to laugh.
Stars Light People
White in the moon the long road lies, the moon stands blank above; white in the moon the long road lies that leads me from my love. still hangs the hedge without a gust, still, still the shadows stay: my feet upon the moonlit dust pursue the ceaseless way. the world is round, so travellers tell, and straight through reach the track, trudge on, trudge on, 'twill all be well, the way will guide one back. but ere the circle homeward hies far, far must it remove: white in the moon the long road lies that leads me from my love.
Lying Moon Feet
The moon is a white strange world, great, white, soft-seeming globe in the night sky, and what she actually communicates to me across space i shall never fully know. but the moon that pulls the tides, and the moon that controls the menstrual periods of women, and the moon that touches the lunatics, she is not the mere dead lump of the astronomist. . . . when we describe the moon as dead, we are describing the deadness in ourselves. when we find space so hideously void, we are describing our own unbearable emptiness.
Moon Night Sky
What was supposed to be so special about a full moon? it was only a big circle of light. and the dark of the moon was only darkness. but halfway between the two, when the moon was between the worlds of light and dark, when even the moon lived on the edge...maybe then a witch could believe in the moon.
Believe Dark Moon
Lord, what if i miss you? what if i miss you? what if i miss you? oh, i'm so scared! god, what if i miss you? he answered simply, "joyce, don't worry; if you miss me, i will find you.
