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?

Oh this poem is beautiful!! I love it

"Are you lonesome
For someone to swoon
With, Mr. Moon?"
I LOVE THAT PART!

See this reminds me of my poem "My Crescent moon" :D

This is beautiful and the loneliness is sad, but you did a nice job on it!!

This is a really great poem! I especially like the fourth stanza; there's just something so awesome about it! Great job again!

I love the innocence of this piece, in fact I kept thinking of children and not until the notes did I realize your thoughts.

I really enjoyed reading this piece! The thought of children whilst reading it, like you said, is very prominent; very clear demographically.
Despite the fact that the end isnt so happy for the Moon, this poem has that joyous feel, and definitely something you can relate to (after all, havent we all wondered why the Moon is visible in the daytime!)
You have a way with words, a great read :)
