Beyond the Moon Virginia Salter someone stole my wide awake put it in a sugar cake tossed t’other side of moon where dish entertained spoon where streams of milk in chocolate seas sweetened up and tasted me where children laugh beyond the stars silhouettes are ice cream bars words and plants sing and dance golden apples play where dustmen roll on distant shores sunlight beams stream to the stars where mothers waltz with kings and knights and darkness fades into the night and you and I are one © August 10, 2000 |

Virginia, I enjoyed the progressive playfulness of your poem. Thank you. Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Thanks, again, ALL! So happy to share this one, cuz it tickles me. I love it when I can get playful with my poetry. It's akin to tickling my daughter under the chin when she was an infant up to being a toddler. Glad you have enjoyed this one! |
