It is almost impossible
to watch a sunset
and not dream.

The sparrow that is twittering
on the edge of my balcony
is calling up to me this moment
a world of memories
that reach over half my lifetime,
and a world of hope
that stretches farther
than any flight
of sparrows. Donald G. Mitchell

Crescent
By Cloudia Charters
A crescent moon reminds us
that becoming is beautiful.
Even a sliver of light
can guide us through a long journey.
The crescent does not apologize
for being incomplete.
Patience is the moon’s wisdom:
every phase arrives in its own time.
It grows quietly,
yet the whole sky notices.
Even a thin moon carries
the promise of fullness.
The crescent is a smile
the night offers to those who look up.
You do not have to be whole
to be luminous.
Every new beginning
starts with a little light.
The crescent teaches us
that less can still be enough—
and what appears to be a fragment
may already be the beginning
of renewal.
It holds within its slender curve
patience, hope,
and the promise of becoming.
When you've lost sight
of your path,
listen for the
destination
in your heart.
