Supermoon


Did you see it?

The biggest and brightest full moon of the year illuminated our sky last night.

Revolving in an elliptical orbit around our planet, last night’s event was a rare one where our satellite came closest to us while reaching its full phase.

I waited expectantly for the moon, hoping to catch it rising from the horizon where it would appear the biggest. I didn’t. When I saw the moon, it was already climbing up the zenith. But still, I was absorbed by its beauty; its perfectly circular luminous canvas, lightly sponged with grey blotches that paints the imagination of the childhood rabbit that resides on the moon.


Sharing two beautiful songs about the moon:

1. Corrinne May - Same Side of The Moon

2. Olivia Ong - Fly Me To The Moon
