Most people have often looked up to the sky and wondered about what's up there or who is up there. As children we stare at the moon and the stars and they seem so far away and difficult to connect to. However, the older we get the more we take them for granted and the childlike fascination that we did have dies. In this collection we revisit our childhood in an effort to connect to the parts of our world that we only experience from a distance. Not realizing that sometimes the moon and the stars speak louder than we ever thought possible. In When I Look Up we hear a bittersweet story of a little girl and how her father taught her the importance of the stars. In Moonlight an adult uses their senses to connect to everything around them but when they focus on the moon the light that it gives is something they never expected. A very simple and loving collection of poetry that reminds us that the dreams that we had as children can still actively live in us as adults among the stars.
