Finding Moons

I stood on a hill to look for the (hilal) Moon.

With no sighting, I figured too soon.

A meteor struck me, lightning, a bird;

Moonless I waited, feeling absurd.

Googling for consensus, men ushered to pray.

Golden silences floated, beacons of light, a ray...

Moonsighting.com and Centres galore,

told me Shaban was present no more.

I skipped down that hill, with a smile in my hand.

30days of dua making, never felt so grand. ★
