The Moon Joined the Sun in the Sky: a captivating cosmic tale from David Krafcik’s self-published book, “Enchanted Dreams, the Moon, Sun and Stars.” Purchase the Collector's Hardcover Edition, hand-signed by the author and artist, at https://angelwingartfarm.etsy.com/listing/4532200041
Catching Falling Stars: It looked to be a lovely evening. There was a feeling that maybe, just maybe, there may be a show in the sky that night. A shower of sorts. But no, not a rain shower but a shower coming from the heavens above. A Meteor shower with enchanting glitter, soaring through the night sky like cosmic lightning bugs. Now, the night in question had a crisp smell to it, so she wrapped herself up in her warm coat. Then, having a feeling that she may have a need for an umbrella, she grabbed the Moon-shaped one hanging on the wall by the door. Now, there is a special place on this lonely hill, called Star Hill, where she likes to go and watch shows, such as the one happening this evening. Out the door she went, laughing and singing her way through the frosty night. This happening was being called "The Night of the Falling Stars" meteor shower. She climbed Star Hill and took a seat on the ground to wait for the show to begin. The night around her got darker and darker, but the sky remained calm. Then, just before sunrise, across the heavens, she spied the first shooting star. Then, after that, another one and another one until the evening sky was filled with shooting stars.
With the number of stars streaking across the sky, the night became brighter than it was before the start of the show. Thinking she might get hit on the head by one of the many falling stars, she opened her umbrella. When she did, a wind suddenly appeared and turned her parasol inside out. She stood holding her inside-out moon-shaped umbrella as hard as she could without getting blown away. Peering up, she noticed that her umbrella was filling with falling stars. Oh, how lucky am I, she thought. The wind stopped, and then the falling stars followed. Walking back home with her pockets filled with stars, she thought that if ever this event were to happen again, she would recommend to anyone else that may go to take an umbrella so that they can catch a falling star and put it in their pocket for a rainy day.

When the Moon Danced with the Sun: The dance began before they met. It started with the Sun chasing the Moon around the world. When the Sun could not take the hunt any longer, it finally called out to the Moon. They pause their chase to look at each other. "What is it?" asked the Moon. Only smiling, the Sun holds out his hand for the Moon to take. The stars in the sky all assemble to watch what is to happen. Below them, the ocean starts to rise and fall. As it does, the sea's voice creates music with its roar and crash of its waves lashing the shore. With that, the Sun and Moon begin to dance. Shining in the sky, dancing the night away. When morning beckoned, the dance came to an end. Bowing to one and the other, the time had come, once again, for the Sun and Moon to go their separate ways. For each to take turns brightening the sky.

Enchanted Dreams: Moon, Sun, and Stars is an illuminated anthology of cosmic fables that personifies the heavens to explore the mysteries of the human spirit. In this realm, the Sun is a keeper of radiant strength, the Moon a silent guardian of silvered secrets, and the Stars are the whispers of ancient seekers. Pairing singular, evocative ink-and-watercolor paintings with lyrical prose, this collection guides readers through a celestial mythos in which the light above serves as a mirror to the resilience we carry within. It is a "gallery-style" journey designed for those who seek wisdom in the rhythm of the universe. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H6CBDMVL
The portal snapped open, and the Wisdom Seeker stepped onto his next planet. Night had fallen. The sky was pitch black, without a single star, A detail he immediately found strange. In front of him stood a large stone stela inscribed with the words: "Sometimes it is best to leave the unknown, unknown." The message seemed odd, especially since his mission was to know the unknowable. Leaning against the stela was a metal shovel, as if daring him to investigate further. Reminded of his inquisitive nature, he picked it up and began digging. After just a few shovelfuls, he was startled to find stars—of all sizes—filling the hole. Curious, he paused, then began clearing more earth to expose more stars. As he did this, the stars seemed to awaken and started to vibrate, then, to his shock, they emerged from the hole like ants from a mound. Quickly, he was knee-deep in stars with still more pouring out around him. Fearing he might drown, he threw down the shovel, grabbed his staff, and summoned the portal. It was time to make a quick exit from the planet or be swallowed by the ever-emerging stars. The Wisdom Seeker later informed that the stars had eventually overrun the planet and, in doing so, created a new Sun that still shines brightly in the cosmos. https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/180208529
"Wind of Change" ; In a world that demands "wholeness," there is a defiant beauty in being composite. You don’t have to be perfect to show bravery or keep moving forward. What matters is having the courage to face challenges and knowing how to stand strong when life tests your limits. It’s important to recognize the visible and invisible struggles that shape how you move through the world. Others might see you and think you’re a tragedy. But really, you are a masterpiece of resilience. Even if life has broken you at times, remember that light shines brightest through the cracks and that true strength is not just surviving the breaks, but rising, shining, and transforming them into the very reason you stand tall.
and Wings to Fly ; Spread your wings, touch the sky, and catch the wind that may carry you up to greater heights. Within your heart, have dreams of hope. With hope, you can break free of the shackles that hold you back and soar beyond what seemed impossible, giving you the strength and courage to rise above your pain and fears, to challenge the unknown, knowing the universe is alive with endless possibilities. www.angelwingartfarm.com
The world is a blazing hot orange furnace, a place where the air hums with so much heat that it is a constant struggle to survive. Yet there he stood steady with crutches on both arms and braces upon his feet to help him navigate through a brand new world that suddenly was no longer familiar. A place that held many new obstacles. How did he get here? The answer didn’t really matter; he was now here in a new form of body and mind. Life is difficult for the able-bodied folks, but for a person of different ability, it is a much, much more dangerous and daunting deal. Having a big heart and grit helps, but sometimes it takes more than that. It takes help from above. No, not the regular guardian angels, but guardian angels that are unafraid to get their hands a little dirty in order to watch over folks like him. Guardian Angels who protect the hard-to-protect. Guardian Angels who handle the heavy lifting. Guardian Angels that wear hard hats.
Just A Shadow of Himself; He had come early through the darkness of night in hopes of finding light and gathering new strength from the Sun. As he stood atop the hill, he watched as the Sun rose from its slumber and, to his pleasant surprise, greeted him with full glory and energy, casting its rays upon his face. In that moment, his long-held hope had finally become reality—the feeling of a new beginning of renewed strength. Before him lay the promise of a bright future, and behind him cast his shadow, a shadow that held every fall he’d ever taken and every weight he had ever carried. It was time to let it go and to never look back, but only forward.
Reflecting Pond ; The figure in blue and green stands tall, with crutches on both arms, peering at his reflection in the water’s mirror. All around him, chaos swirls in orange and red. He is there to seek comfort from a new life filled with turmoil. The image he casts in the water shifts and transforms, reflecting not only his outward appearance but also his inner life or spirit. This suggests an ongoing search for clarity, peace, and a new perspective. In the Reflecting Pond, there is a moment for contemplation and meditation, where one realizes that although you cannot control what has happened, you can control how you respond. Not all is lost if you find a way to make it your own.www,angelwingartfarm.com
The painting "No Stairway to Heaven" by artist Krafcik, executed in Reverse Glass Painting, immediately draws the viewer in with its bold use of color and dynamic composition. The use of bright, contrasting, strong colors tells a tale of a hard but determined journey. At first, you see a man with crutches and a staircase. As you look again, the man and the staircase become one. In this dreamlike scene, the staircase shows not only his journey but also his strong will. A determination of his climb, a climb that is both physical and emotional. The bright, wild colors show his struggles, but the path is marked by a glowing blue, a sign of hope and strength. Where the orange signifies the chaotic, difficult reality he now faces. The colors visibly express the constant effort to maintain one's own shape, identity, and path amid overwhelming intensity and odds. A work of art that is not just about a man climbing, but about a spirit rising beyond its limits.

The Lost City on the Moon; The Moon Castle, that was the name it was called ages ago. There may be only a few who have the knowledge of how it came to be. But many did understand that it was and is still there. Where is it located, you may ask? Why, silly, it is stationed on the dark side of the Moon. Under the shadow of space and below the mighty craters. Yes, below, as in underground.A celestial home to the Aven people. The Avens were the ones asked by the Sun to build the Moon. When the Avens began their construction, it was only to be a quarter of the Moon, but the Sun felt the city needed to be hidden from sight. There, the plan came to be for the Lost City on the Moon and the Moon Castle to be under the craters where the Avens could keep building the Moon into a round shape. When they were finished, the Sun noticed that the Moon panels that the Avens used to complete the Moon were dull. The Sun wanted the Moon to reflect its light so people of the Blue Island would think of him even at night. To fix this problem, the Avens got to work and coated the Moon's surface with a layer of glue. Then the Sun took out a pouch of stardust he had stowed in his pocket and blew it all onto the surface of the Moon. The stardust made the Moon glitter, and with the help of the glue, it stuck to the surface. That is how the Moon came to reflect the light from the Sun and how the Moon came to be in the night sky. https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Lost-City-on-the-Moon-by-AngelWingArt/172393533/lrcw

Meteor Shower. Once, every now and then, the Moon receives a treat from the cosmos. It doesn't take much to make the Moon happy because who won't be happy bathing in the love of the Sun all night? This is one of those times that if you are lucky enough to look up at the Moon that night, you will see her smiling from crater to crater. By her solar calendar, she knew a cosmic event would happen soon, and that soon was this very night. It is known as an atmospheric phenomenon, a stream of cosmic debris, or, more accurately, a meteor shower. Out of her celestial closet, she grabbed her favorite red umbrella. Then, to keep her feet dry, she slipped on a pair of galoshes and a bucket to collect some fallen stars. She waited to go outside before opening her umbrella, as opening it inside was considered bad luck. As a cloud passed, she jumped on the nearest cloud and went for a star-falling stroll with her red umbrella held high over her Moon head, galoshes, and star bucket. To her pleasure, the sky rained down stars from a passing comet that night. The Moon waved to it, thanked it as it passed by Earth, and shared its dust trail with her and the people of Earth. So, if you are ever lucky enough to see a meteor shower, be sure to follow the Moon's suggestion to grab an umbrella and a pair of galoshes, and don't forget your star bucket.
