A Valued Lesson Learned

A valued lesson I have learned from the Earth—must

keep moving. And I’ve been taught something of worth

from the moon—must keep moving. The sagacious sun

has assigned—must keep moving most of the time.

Even on a galactic level, Milky Way spirals round as if

to say—must keep moving every minute of every day.

I do, however, nap from time to time, and I tend to

pause and rest more frequently as I age.

My orbit has been reduced by gravitational forces ap-

plied, and I must admit, although my axial spin is a bit

wobbly as of late, I have managed to remain in motion

(albeit slow and sluggish) most of my days.
