Hi, Bill! Thanks for your kind review...yes, I think there are many trolls there! And they're not ALL fat and grumpy!

I appreciate your continued attention to my work...Thanks to the moon and back!

Interesting poem Lunar. I have read these many times I am still deciphering the reference to the troll. I would love to be in your head for a day!

Dear DR DIP,

I'm certainly glad that you found this poem interesting! There is no deep meaning to the troll, I simply decided to place him in the poem!

I think if you were in my mind for a day, you'd be drumming on the door in the back of my head to escape!

I appreciate your continued attention to my work...Thanks to the moon and back!

This is cool! It's very different from the one I have just read, but I like both.
You're a natural. I bet your son can see your poems and is proud of you.
Thanks for sharing.

I am perplexed by this.poem. Who is the troll, who is mother moon. I just can't grasp the symbolism or reference. Intriguing however I feel I am missing something....spill!

Dear joannakruk,

Let me explain the meaning of this little poem to you...there really is nothing deep, I fear. For example, the reference to the troll exists simply because I had trolls on my mind at the time, and Mother Moon is ofttimes how I refer to the moon in my writing.

Hope this helps!

I appreciate your continued attention to my work...Thanks to the moon and back!

Ahh now I see. thank you for taking the time to explain.

You're just a writin' machine, ain't ya, Jeni?
You're crankin' 'em out faster than Dunkin' Donuts can make the...well... the donuts.

This sounded a lot like my 22 year-old son, heh-heh. Well, he isn't fat, but he hates mornings, and he's certainly grumpy if awakened before noon.

Great poem.
Loved it!

My friend,

I just enjoy writing. I've got a lot swimming around in my head.

Ha, ha, it also sounds like both my son, Mickey and my daughter, Colleen!

Chicken Little would be shouting if one of them ever arose prior to the noon hour.

I appreciate your continued attention to my work...Thanks to the moon and back!

reply by Dean Kuch on 23-Nov-2016

You're more than welcome, Luna.
I know the feeling, there's always a lot swimmin' around in my head too. The problem is, some of them just don't know how to swim, heh-heh.

This creates a wonderful little glimpse of whimsy. I love the title, giving us perspective of our Mother Moon. Welcome back to fanstory and I hope your muse has returned home where she belongs. I am sorry to hear of your son's death and I wish you peace, love and clarity. judester

This is a very playful, sing-song triolet. I favor fantasies about trolls and goblins. Three million miles from mother moon is a great line. The artwork compliments this gem. It flows well and is enchanting. I would recommend it.

Dear Patricia,

I'm truly amazed and grateful for the magnificent six-star review you' ve granted my poem. To be truthful, I was totally unsure as to how this one would fare...Thank you for letting me have an answer!

I appreciate your attention to my work...Thanks to the moon and back!

Hi Luna!

Although I'm not fond of this form, your theme is so appropriate
for your name. When you write of trolls, it reminds me of my
childhood and how I collected trolls.

Momma Moon does live far away and perhaps that's a good thing
if the troll is that grumpy.

Linda
