When there was darkness all around. God said let there be light and there was light. Man prefers light no darkness. He likes the sun which is the ultimate source of light and heat. But to him light is more pleasing than heat. What he wants is provided by the moon. That is to say, it gives him light without heat. So the moon is so dear to him. The gentle light of the moon is so balmy and refreshing that man has always tried to have a close relationship with the moon. Though modern science has conquered the moon and shaken off the age-old beliefs and notions about it, yet ton the children it is still their maternal uncle (chand mama). To the poets and the lovers it is still the queen of the heaven. All these show how men love and like the moon.

           A moonlit night presents various charms and beauties to all. It offers beautiful and enchanting sights. The moon shines in the azure sky. She looks like a large disc of dazzling silver. The sparkling stars twinkle around the moon. The sky looks like a large canopy over flooded with light. The moon bathes the whole earth with her balmy beams. Everything appears to be coated with silver. Rivers, canals and tanks seem to laugh in the splendid moonlight. The speaks of cloud shine in the silvery light of the moon. The trees and creepers look bright and sparkling. The moon blesses the clouds and they add to the beauty of the sky. The white tinge all around on the top of trees gives to ones mind the touch of mystery of nature.

              A moonlit night has a tremendous influence on the life of men. It is difficult for children to keep indoors They make marry playing games in open fields. Imaginative people like the poets and the lovers feel an irresistible urge for going out and becoming one with nature. They feel a thrill of joy in their hearts. Elderly men and women also cannot keep indoors. They pass hours outside in gossips and story-telling. The enchanting moonlit night makes the sorrowing mother forget the intensity of her great loss and look around to see where her lost treasure might be. A moonlit night has no less influence on birds and beasts. Birds come out of their nests or burst out into occasional notes. They are so much delighted that they cannot sleep so long as the light continues. Beasts also come out of their folds, and run to and fro. The beauty of a moonlit night in Bangladesh is seen at its best advantages in the open. Bangladesh has a network of rivers and on a moonlit night rivers present impressive sights. The sight of numerous country boats with white sails bathed in the moonlight has hardly and parallel. It is a pleasant sight to see the play of moon beams on the river. The sight of the softly flowing waters tinged with the silvery rays, has peculiar beauty of its own. The sea on a moonlit night presents more impressive spectacles. A man standing on the sea-beach is carried away by its inexpressible beauty. If we look at fields and meadows on a moonlit night they give us the idea of a fairy land. Forests and hills appear clad in a blaze of glory when the soft light of the moon floods them.
