New Moon

A scrap of verse I wrote in the middle of the night, based on a news item I saw yesterday. A new nursery rhyme.

The Man in the Moon

Wanted company;

Then he looked up,

And a new moon did see.

The big, round moon

Has found a friend:

A tiny thing,

From end to end!

The last thing that came up in the night for me got me a punch from my long suffering wife !!

Yikes, Gee! That's not the way things are supposed to work!

Mum always said it’s for stirring your tea son, should have heeded her advice

[Debbie Barry]

That's excellent advice! You should be writing comedy. You have me giggling!

Wish I could jot things down when they came to me in the middle of the night. This is so sweet and I am still smiling from ear to ear.......N

Thanks, Neville! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I keep my phone by the bed at night, so I texted these poems to myself. I was afraid of losing them, if I waited until morning.

[Neville]

Keep that phone handy & that's an order....N

[Debbie Barry]

Will do! :)
