To the Moon on Her Ascension

Shy behind her gauzy veil
Her strength and beauty unrevealed
Shining past the earth-bound bars
My protector, my fountain of life.
Her cool glow bathing her wraithen captors.
Clearly now she shines alone.
Avatars defend her,
Each alone, but together,
They fight for the purity of their home.
Freed now from earth-bound bars
The rightful queen ascends her throne
To her each sends his praises
And she meets out their fate,
Whether to rise and capture men's imagination,
Or to fall and be forgotten.
