The moon really scares me sometimes. It is something we take for granted: It's a lifeless rock, but it is so essential to life. It is an extension of our selves. Our celestial companion. But, it is drifting further and further way from us. Our hold slowly but inexorably weakens. Someday the Moon will leave us. We will be broken and alone. Until then, I'm going to enjoy following it's phases, and seeing its pretty face at night.
The moon always struck me as a tragically beautiful thing. It's pretty to look at but all that tranquility comes with the price of being alone...or having men come up once in a while to play golf on you.
I hate the moon, though I tolerate it as it keeps the darkness at bay. When it's out, anyways.
I hate the dark. It makes me think of all the aweful things I contemplate, and the punishment I would deserve for them. NOt fair! I don't even DO the horrible things I imagine, and I see myself being killed by something in the dark!
I've always loved walking in the moonlight ever since I was a child. My grandmother had a massive garden with lots of trees and hedges and several curious old buildings with bygone stuff in like your photo of the old pianola. I used to sneak out in my teens and walk round the garden in the moonlight enchanted by the strange shadows and muted colours as well as the excitement of doing something that seemed somehow forbidden. The moon to me was comforting,reassuring me with every strange noise that there was nothing there to fear.

Beautiful sentiment. I see the moon as a unique companion to our world. No other planet in our solar system has a moon nearly a quarter the size of the world it orbits. That makes it special. Magical? Who can say?
