the unusual seems to want tender beneath a full moon breakable a careful cloud scuttles across its anxious angels flying hushed tonight when the time is compliant they will bring their fragile deposit careful kisses upon my clever before they leave they take them back blushing the moon tames the clouds and shines naughtily a tear in the corner of his precious man in the moon has removed himself from the closet telling the stars curious and cleverly that he waits for the cow to jump over the moon ©August 27, 2012 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (09-17-2012 08:35 AM).] |

"man in the moon has removed himself from the closet telling the stars curious and cleverly that he waits for the cow to jump over the moon" If there really can be classic poetry this is one. Nice write, Jerry. JL Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. |
