"Cheshire Moon" - An Original Poem by ZW |
|
(I just took some garbage out to the dumpster, and noticed the crescent moon hanging "upside down", like some sort of cosmic smile. So I felt a bit inspired.)
There is a Cheshire Moon Perched in the Arizona Sky Smiling upon our hopes and plans Casting pale mocking light
The last crescent moon of winter Says goodbye to us with a smile It's silver sliver orb just hanging Putting our dreams on trial
The wicked grinning moon Imparting a sense of mirth While we go about our business As we have had since birth
The moon, it is indifferent But with its crescent inverted I must explain, I must tell you It actually looks quite perverted
There is a Cheshire Moon On the limb of the Mogollon Rim May we never tire of its beauty Or the mystery which lies within...

3. If the cat is invisible to Alice |

It is invisible to me. :-)
(Besides, my real life cat is a handful as it is, the cute booger)

10. Yeah, there should be a cat somewhere, gazing at the moon. |

I wish I could see it -- we've been socked in with coastal fog, day and night for days now.
I never saw the sun today, much less the moon tonight.
But I felt it, thanks to your lovely poeme de lune!

Nice personification of the mooon- most wouldn't chose to make it a mocking figure.

6. InDEED Sir....excellent prose m'Man.....I'll add...Thank the Moon... |
|
Take a star from the sky And buy a lovely dream Thank the moon with a kiss And sleep beneath its beam
Ride upon the waterfall That takes you to that place Where all your dreams come true And your life is filled with grace
Fly on the wings of a dove And fly above the trees Look below where you once stood And laugh with the blowing breeze
Swim with the mermaids Who dance in the ocean blue Splashing, flipping and jumping With dolphins who swim there too
Before you climb into bed Take a star and make a wish And let the dream fill your head As your life is filled with bliss
:pals:
