Excellence Award in the 'Dream Big 2013' competition

How bright you are o moon
You shine beyond anything in the night
No star compares to your brightness
Or challenge your almighty shine
Yet some nights your shine dims
And the world goes dark
And the world is run by darkness
No-one goes outside
Except for some few who wish to challenge the darkness
These are good people who are there to help others through the darkness
Until the moon shines through to wash the darkness away
And bring light to the land.
