Man in the Moon

The writer weaves a tender story outlining the journey of two lovers who finally find one another again after a period of living apart for more than thirty years, never having had any contact with one another at all. Following a bitter parting decades ago, they each went on to pursue entirely separate lives. We are invited to share in the rekindling of their love through the eyes of one of the lovers, as she confides in the reader her innermost thoughts. Poetry is woven throughout this writing as the writer creates a sense of the main character's thoughts drifting and scattering throughout the rekindling of this relationship, as occurs in real life. Their love is daring and poignant, conflicting and true. We observe them struggle against all odds, hoping that the passage of time has not dealt a fatal blow to the possibility of new beginnings.
