Do you ever like to just look up and admire the moon on a clear night? I’ve spent time trying to photograph the moon and it is one of the most difficult things to take a photo of (in my opinion). Below in my poem, is a picture of the moon that I took with my cell phone one night. It was glowing so bright and even the camera couldn’t do that glow justice. The moon is the one constant thing that we always have in our lives – along with the sun and of course, even the stars (although on cloudy nights, they are hard to see)….
“Within the depths of our mind, we are battling the duel of light and darkness…good and evil…love and hate…” Between Light and Darkness is Ariana’s most recent collection of poetry… Cherry’s frequent message she delivers throughout her work is, “The journey through the darkness, back into the light.”
Her hope is to let others know that they won’t be in that place of darkness for long – that they indeed can reach the light once again…She also wants her readers to know – that – it is okay if they find themselves in that bleak blackness…Sometimes we feel guilty for going to that dark place – but it is necessary to conquer the demons that battle our souls….
Other books that Cherry has written include "Only If" and "Twisted Paths Poetry." Her epic tale, “Only If,” won the “Reader’s Favorite Award” and a 5 star review…and her collection, “Twisted Paths Poetry,” received a 5 star review from Realistic Poetry International.
She has been writing ever since she was a child. Some of her inspirations include Edgar Allen Poe, Robert Frost, Stephen King, Emily Dickinson, Christopher Pike and Shel Silverstein.
Ariana writes a variety of genres: inspirational, humorous and horror – although writing horror is one of her favorites…. She was 12 years old when she read Poe for the very first time – which inspired her epic poetry tale, “Only If.“
During other parts of her free time, she enjoys taking photos and creating art. Her “day-jobs” include working as a church administrative aide and reporting for a local newspaper.

Amazing!! The Earth is helping out humanity. Never quite thought of the moon so in touch with people before like that but I agree. 🙂
Thank you for your kind comments 🙂 I’ve always loved the moon… It seems to be the one constant that we can always see in the sky. And even thought there are nights when we may not be able to see it – it is still there….
