Man in the Moon





PAD Prompt: Full Moon

Somewhere the air
Holds in its mouth
The words that I would say
I want to be
Brave; vulnerable
But you’re too far way

Tonight the sky
Is full of you
...your iridescent glow
But you are the
Man in the moon
A fantasy, I know

Why is it that
When you are full
I seem so very small
In fact, I touch
My face to see
If I exist at all

J~

  4. Lovely poem. I like the lines "Tonight the sky / is full of you" That's how the full moon strikes me--can't get away from his unblinking eye!

    And I see you're doing the November PAD challenge. So am I!! Glad someone I know is playing along (although you're so prolific, I certainly can't keep up. I'm just glad if I get one poem from each prompt).
