Moon - Memories

Today when I was going in and out of my house, I happened to glance at the moon. It has few more days to become a full moon..My memories started running far behind....When I was in my school days, I used to sleep in the first floor of my house....where my grandparents would be.....
My grandfather always used to sleep in a particular place in that big hall...I used to persuade him to move a bit left or right....And sometimes he would give up..... and finally I get my place...It would be around 10.30 pm....I will open up the windows, lie down on the mattress and be waiting... slowly I will drowse off....I will then wake up to see the moon brilliantly shining on the sky amidst the stars....The moment has come....I still remember...... The moment of happiness....The cool breeze coming through the windows.....the moon in the sky and my little big dreams.... I will watch it and watch it and watch it till my eyes drop,the moon moves slowly away from my sight and I keep turning my head to constantly watch it...Hmmmm......What nice feeling to have....
You should have this experience of gazing into the open sky and imagining and dreaming of all nice things in life....
I have read in books that moon rules emotions.....I feel it is true....All these years, whenever I feel down or happy I used to walk in the front of my house thinking of the happenings. suddenly I gaze at the moon and I feel very light...For me it was giving a message " Do not worry, I am there looking after you, I am the proof of all you think and do".....

The moon, like a flower
In heaven's high bower,
With silent delight
Sits and smiles on the night.
- William Blake
