The full moon hung
from a navy blue sky
in mid July,
when a black wisp
of a cloud
decided to slide by.
It lingered just long enough
in front of the moon
that it appeared to me
to be
a handlebar mustache.
As I looked,
I wondered
if I was the only one
who saw it,
and thought that.

Yup, you are original to the max, Lori. I have a feeling you see and understand far more than most of us do. That is a compliment. You deserve one.
