The Lunar-Solar Row

Chapter 20

Once the moon braved the Sun And came out in the day And boasted to its fellow stars How she defied the Sun's ray! The Sun flew into a rage On seeing Moon in the sky He marched over there How orders she defy? Grumpily he scolded her, Dost thou know, what thou have done? Your commands I will not follow! Replied Moon, glaring at the Sun. Dost Thou know who Thou are talking to? Shouted the Sun angry! I am talking to just a Bluffing Star! Answered Moon placidly! Luna, Thou don't argue with me! Screamed the Sun on Moon! Thou dare scream on me! Said she, turning red-maroon! The Sun burst a burning ball Which took away Moon's light And the Moon aimed a chunk of rock Which freezed Sun's flight All the world came to see The epic day, many years ago! And they named the epic moment The Lunar-Solar Row!
