Silence followed the last words, while the friendly moon climbed up the sky.

The moon, almost full, climbed high in the eastern sky as they sat talking after dinner.

By the next evening, when the moon climbed high in the sky like a warped pearl, they were ready.

Time passed; the moon climbed higher and higher in the sky.

Sitting on the low bluff, watching the moon climb the dark sky, he felt the old sadness again.

As the moon climbed out of the sea, it seemed to shrink.

The moon rose and climbed steadily into the eastern sky.

They waited in the warm summer darkness as the moon slowly climbed the eastern sky.

By then the moon will have climbed to 30 degrees above the southern horizon.
