and stood in front of the Sun,
turning day to night.
Mother Nature was angry.
"What are you doing?"
She demanded of the Moon.
"You've unleashed chaos!"
"I do not care!" said the Moon.
"I'm tired of the night!"
"You're being very foolish,"
said Mother Nature.
"And you're spoiling my good mood."
"You love the Sun more!"
wailed the Moon, starting to cry.
"You never scold him!"
The Moon's tears fell on the Earth,
causing awful floods.
The seas rose, drowning the land.
Men and beasts were drowned.
Mother Nature struck the Moon,
knocking her away.
The Moon fell into the dark,
sobbing and moaning.
To this day, the Moon is lost,
drifting in the dark.
But the Sun and Stars still shine,
keeping the skies bright.
