Odd Natured Things

Odd natured things
Don’t happen often
Maybe only once…
In a blue moon
It was strange seeing you
And everyone else
Standing around
With only the voices
They were the voices
Of people I had already known
Yet something was different
The setting, the tone
Left only to see
For a few rushing moments
And wanting more
Of what I can’t have
Maybe in a month, a year…
Or even a lifetime
Another blue moon
Will shine from above
And grace me with a presence
That is so strange to mind
I cannot yet grasp
Everything that has happened
Yet maybe, just maybe
I’ll see a blue moon,
And wish upon it
For it to once more bring me you

~sorry if the format sux...if i even have one. it was a spur of the moment thing~

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

A very interesting poem, Ethel.  I didn't understand parts of it, but I still thought it is very well written.  Nice job.

Great job.  I did like the idea of a "blue moon," I thought it was original.
