This is another short story I wrote inspired partially
by these photos I took of the moon along with some drawings I have done in the
past.
Jakob used his camera to take photos of the pale moon and observed it in curiosity. Threw the glass window he could see that this moon was a white, light grey color with darker grey splotches and craters on it. It was also kind of smaller than he had expected.
“What do you think?” His dad asked.
“It’s not blue, and its surface has craters on it, but it’s nice and unique in its own way,” Jakob replied. "And I kinda like the color."
His dad looked at the moon and nodded in agreement. “Ready to fly back home?”
“Yeah.”
His dad powered up the engine of the spaceship.
“Dad, when do you think we’ll visit Earth?”
“Probably when you 14, son.”
As the spaceship flew away from Earth’s moon, Jakob watched the Earth, its moon, and its sun grow smaller and smaller until they were out of sight. A half-hour later, he could see his home planet again, the rainbow planet Zangar along with its blue moon Indigo. He smiled. It was good to be back. Though he looked forward to going to Earth one day, he could wait. His home was more than enough for now.
