[hometext] => One of four homages to the great cheese-ball in the sky. This one, new moon - The phase of the moon occurring when it passes between the earth and the sun and is invisible or visible only as a narrow crescent at sunset.
[bodytext] => Sun, moon and earth aligned, Your dark becoming, much maligned Brooding Lilith, like us all, Your have your shadows to enthral There are your cycles and your phases, All aloof to earthly gazes. Crescent moon, iridescent, Earthshine draws your luminescence Early rising, twilight set, Not ready to reveal all yet Cresting in the noonday sun, Your lunation has just begun. Silent moonscape, so desolate, The lunar calendar marks your circuit Your sunny countenance oblique, A glimpse of light is all we seek A peep of you in your prime, Neomenia, it is your time. Maiden moon, your powers grow, And soon your face will start to show But those of us who sing your praises, Admire you in all your phases Waxing lyrical, the dull tides drum, A glimpse of beauty still to come.
