I sense it
just a moment ago
he looked over my shoulder
while I was writing
—the moon

Poetically speaking, moonlight casts a magical spell on our senses and emotions. Its gentle, silvery glow transforms the night into a mysterious landscape, stirring imagination and feelings. Yet, it neither affects our lives nor our health, nor can we physically feel it – it is simply too faint for that.
Although not physically measurable, moonlight can be metaphorically felt as a cool touch on the skin. It evokes sensations of calm, longing, or romance and creates an atmosphere of contemplation. As a symbol of change and cosmic cycles, it has always inspired artists and poets, who strive to capture its ethereal beauty in their works. What would we be without the moon?
