Ah, yes...to wax or wan...and never the twain shall meet!
But seriously, hev...you can also wax poetic, and we speak of the waxing moon or the wax of the moon (also the wan of the moon).
It does seem that wax holds a positive connotation, though...for instance, we don't usually say, wax illiterate, although I suppose you could.
