Wesak moon


Since about a fortnight ago, it has been raining on most afternoons. And if it wasn't raining, the sky would be full of clouds. Greyish dark clouds. As a result, I haven't had to opportunity to have a clear good sight of the moon and the stars. It is always very fascinating to look at the moon every night to see it slowly waxing or waning. With yesterday being Wesak Day, it would have been a full moon but last night, I had been unable to see it. Not until this morning. I awoke at 5.30am with moonlight streaming through the bedroom window directly onto my face. Very little clouds in the still dark sky, the moon sharply outlined. Still a Wesak moon. Fabulous sight indeed.
