How Many Moons Can You See?
It was a full moon and, shining on
all the snow,
it made everything almost as bright
as day.
-C. S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch,
and the Wardrobe
When the subject of vision
came up
(as it must with an
ophthalmologist)
I told Dr. Talbot that I saw
two moons
When only one of them would
be sufficient
But which one?
After a gentle touch of
surgery
I now see only one moon, which
is nice
But I rather miss that
other moon
And wonder if in her exile
she misses me too
Where is she?
On whatever planet you
happen to live
I don’t think you can have
too many moons
