To visionary1234,
We humbly await the sublime awakening as the ebony heavens is filled with the subtle but mesmerizing appearance of the celestial body known as the moon.
Good metaphoric tone evoked.

A soft and gentle poem. That mysterious silver window certainly does know how to draw the eye; leading us to poetry ... probably the most-written-about face of all, the Moon!
What's for supper at your house tonight, S?

every man for himself in the supper department dear! I'm on strike! :)))))))))))))) What about you?

Ha! I love your laugh.
Well long story short, I'm in a non-weight-bearing foot cast (one more week to go, it's been 7 weeks overall...ask me if I'm going crazy!)
One of my boys and his dad put a turkey in the oven! Never thought I'd see the day :)
So one
-
oooh - foot surgery (basis for your story?) - and no worries, the turkey's probably still alive - check for squawks! :)

AB-so-lutely not! All my shit is fiction!! ;)
Comment from Robert Lee Brown
This is a beautiful write with lots of imagery. A beautiful selection of words that speak for themselves. I knew that the moon influenced the tides and the howling of the wolves; but never thought of it to be associated with poem writing. Maybe that's what I have been missing. Thanks for sharing, Your friend, Bob

Comment from Gregory K Shipman
Now isn't this just the loveliest, descriptively detailed and yet metaphoric poem one would want to read (I'm the one). It's a beautiful little gem that takes us where you want us to be, except we fill in the background...
Mine would be a little cabin out near Murphy Dome outside of Fairbanks. It's 12:30 am, the sky is clear and the birch trees are leafless and the moon is full... I'm in the loft and the skylight over the bed is larger than the full moon... since this ain't hardly my natural surroundings we can guess something other than a curtained full moon had me here...
And yes, there was definitely some poetic waxing...
Love your work, Sharyn

Ooh ... What a romantic view of the moon! The moon has always enchanted poets. Tell me though, what does "wax poetic" mean? It sounds like the last word is missing.

to "wax poetic" means to come forth with flowery language - there are two words "wax" and "wane" which are also descriptive of the lunar cycles, so it's a double pun on the word - "wax" means to increase in size, "wane" means the moon is decreasing in size, yes? so no, no last word missing my dear :)

The moon is beautifully surprised and personified- amazing work, Sharyn. Your words are so enjoyable that I had to read twice... Brilliant imagery in the second lines and excellent alliteration of "slowly sweeps"...:-)
