Our moon is always looking over us

Waning gibbous moon tonight. 76.4% illumination. The moon rises at 7:36pm. It’s rainy and cloudy now at midafternoon.
I hope for a break in the clouds in the east in a couple of hours.
Still cloudy? I’ll try again tomorrow morning.
I wake up on a beautiful autumn morning and the moon is above the changing leaves in a pure blue sky.
It is highly unlikely that any of us life forms would ever be here without our moon. Without the moon’s gravitational pull and the sloshing of our ocean waters. With all the chemistry that was sloshing about in it.
We should be grateful for the moon on this our blue planet.
The moon rises just behind this clump of trees.
What kind of mysterious power does this floating rock command?
