Two Stars

The sun sank from the sky, turning it to shades of orange and yellow, as if in mourning. The moon peeked over the southern crest, a large round eye gazing over the Savannah. An African wild dog ushered her rowdy pups into a den. The mother felt the soft dirt under her belly fur as her pups lay in the curve of her belly. Except for one, sitting at the den entrance. With his mindful gaze, he watched...

They Dream of Dusk

The day brings warmth, the night brings quiet. The sun illuminates others, the moon shines for herself. This mutual incompatibility is at the crux of their relationship. One rises while the other sets.


The moon avoids the sun as the brilliance of his rays lays her imperfections bare. She thrives in the night, her glow just soft enough to highlight her mystique.

Some say the moon is the keeper of dawn,

The curly-haired boy presses his face against the cold glass of the window and stares outside. "Elio," he begins, "where does the sun go when it's nighttime?"


Elio stands up and walks over to his brother, looking into his hopeful eyes and smiling. "It goes to sleep."


"But what about the moon?" The boy asks.

The Day and Night Cycle

Moon and Sun are friends. They always have been; they’ve been together since the beginning of the earth, and they used to hope to be like that until the end. Sun still does. Moon, on the other hand, has different plans.


Moon and Sun used to have another friend named Earth. They loved Earth dearly, and they were a trio. Sun had always been optimistic, kind and happy. Earth was creative and unique,...
