“As to you O Moon” by Edward Carpenter • September Pagan Challenge # 17 (New Moon)

Today’s moon phase is actually waxing gibbous.

Edward Carpenter (1844-1929) was a gay Pagan vegetarian socialist and one of the founders of the Pagan revival. This poem appears on page 141-142 of his book “Towards Democracy”.

Thanks to James Butler for introducing me to this poem.
