The Moon

A Poem by April Child

I love the moon

I’d like to eat it with a spoon

but my arms aren’t long enough

life is tough.

If not being able to stretch your arms to the moon is your biggest problem, then you are doing pretty well. LOL.
I don't know many people who would even try, so life is tough but you can't say you didn't try.
There is much depth in four brief lines. You've done a great job. Thanks for entering the comp!

Our far-flung wishes leave us empty and dissatisfied sometimes.

As they say...aim for the moon...you won't hit it but at least you might get one past the woodpile...;)

Nice send.

I love the simplicity of your poem and the humorous, yet wise, conclusion. Well done. Good luck to you in the contest.

Life is only tough if you live it!
You could just use a straw, don't you know, or pull a George Bailey and rope it, then the moonbeams could shoot out of your fingertips... oh forget it!.
You're right, Life is tough, just get over it!
