The Pale Moon is a kind of proverb that invites us to express our feelings.  For instance, Valentine's Day is a good opportunity to tell someone that you are feeling something that you have been hiding for awhile.  By doing so, you are joining a kind of paradise, freedom from hiding what you were troubling yourself with for so long.  In addition, citizens vote in order to choose a leader for their community or country.  They show their ideas, their feelings by voting.  The Pale Moon helps us to express something that we are hiding and to bring changes into our daily life.  ~ Bakary S.

 

The Poem That Started It All

Ce soir la lune pale est longue
La plupart n'est plus que l'ombre
Mais elle est encore pleine, ronde.
