Moon Drops

Mr. Moon,

Why do you

Wink at me?

 

Don't you know it's

Only noon.

 

It's too soon

To crawl in my

Cocoon to go

To sleep.

 

I need to fish,

I need to eat,

I need to play

In the lagoon

With the other

Raccoons.

 

Why are you always 

Winking at me

Mr. Moon?

 

Or is there

A moon drop

In your eye?

 

Maybe celestial

Beings get

The blues

Too?

 

Are you lonesome

For someone to swoon

With, Mr. Moon?

 

 

 

Author's Note

I was thinking of children when I wrote this poem.

Reviews

[M Garcia]

I like it. Its a good poem, a good nursery rhyme

[Wondering Mind]

I think writing for children is not an easy task. You've managed here to compose a flowing, playful, yet deep piece of writing. Thank you for sharing.

[G. Anderson]

I love the way you put the pictures at the beginning of the poem. It's like a sneak-peek at a new movie everyone is wanting to see....

Lovely little read, Marie. But I can't help to wonder if the last question was just rhetorical ;P
