full moon: So Kind Is the Moon




https://act.moveon.org/event/families-belong-together/search/




Es tan amable la luna


La luna llena se cuela
por entre las rejas de la cárcel
de niños
para recoger sus sollozos
en su delantal de luz
y llevárselos a sus padres
en cárcel de adultos
y traerles lamentos y bendiciones
de sus madres, sus padres
a los niños.
Es tan amable la luna
que no niega su luz
ni a los malvados traficantes de angustia.
Es tan amable la luna.

So Kind Is the Moon


The full moon slips
through the bars of the jail
of the children
to gather their sobs
in her apron of light
& carry them to their parents
in the jail for adults
& bring the laments & blessings
of their mothers & fathers
back to the children.
The moon is so kind
that it does not deny its light
even to the evil dealers in anguish.
So kind is the moon.
