Did you see that moon

(Reflecting some sun)

A sign that soon

(Another cycle is run)

Are the phases

(Phasing you)

… too?

Not surprising

(There’s a full moon rising)

Are the phases

(Phasing you)

… too?

Not surprising

(There’s a full moon rising)

A bit sunlit in the night…

(By the light of the moon)

Always amazes

(Watching the phases)

Pass to the past

(Day by day)

Roll to tomorrow

(Today)

A bit sunlit in the night…

(By the light of the moon)

Moon, soon

(Tomorrow will come)

And, my sun…

(We’ll meet face to face)

Moonlight is sunlight that reflects off the moon’s surface, which is made of rock and dust. The moon does not produce its own light; it simply reflects the sun’s rays back toward Earth. Our view of the moon changes throughout the month as its position relative to the sun and Earth shifts, creating the different moon phases.

* Light bounces off: The moon’s rough surface, including dust, craters, and volcanoes, reflects about 12% of this sunlight.

* Reflected light reaches Earth: This reflected light travels to Earth, and because we are not a source of light in this scenario, we perceive it as moonlight.

* Phases are due to perspective: What we see as different moon shapes (phases) are simply different portions of the sunlit side of the moon that are visible from our vantage point on Earth.
