The Man in the Moon

My daughter cannot see the man in the moon.
This is difficult for me to understand.
He's always been such a good friend.
Maybe she's too smart for her own good.
She sees the craters and the mountains for what they are.
The shadows do not speak to her.
Yet art is who she is. It oozes from her being.
She doodles intricate pictures on everything,
including her friends,
their binders, and their hands.
She is an extremely talented artist,
especially good at drawing faces.
Which is why I do not comprehend
how my daughter cannot see my friend.
