September Moon

You.

Yes it is you

Now in unhidden view

In this silent untidy night

Dare I say, 

you are the only light--

I was going to add this to my favorites and then I realized I had already done that.

This piece is priceless. Yes, the author is talking to the moon it seems, but then there's so much more...it's intensity in the words you have here. It reminds me of a Disney movie I saw, called "The Princess and the Frog". In it is a firefly that is in love with a bright star in the night sky that he calls Evangeline. This poem could be that firefly talking to Evangeline.

Or any other person in love talking to their one and only.

The fact that my six year anniversary is this September only makes me love this poem more.

Thank you for writing it.

So short yet powerful. The word "You" has a great impact and could be taken in different context. either it refers to the moon or to the reader. nice. Thank you for sharing this =)

I don't want to have a deep research on what is really in a moon during a month of september because I think a swift eye on this poem would be enough to have a single intrpretation but without too much thinking. At first glance if the reader is oriented to its writer the interpretation would possibly about lover--the moon--on the other hand if a religious man would see the first interpretaion can be about god(the moon,the light,the wisdom) and the silent untidy night is the symbol of predicament,whatever it is.
What really great in this poem is that you really get the power of brevity. To be more explicit, what a haiku do on its reader is what this poem is also doing. It creates different but whole interpretations of what the reader will be thinking of this poem. Every possible interpretations will surely be completed by the reader at ease. Unlike the other poems the ambiguity is great but that ambiguity will remain ambiguity at all which is in some point challenging only because the meaning is too confined that makes the reader read and read it until they come with satisfying interpretations..In totality the saying, "it is really great to be simple and to be great is to be simple" has been justified.:) great work mam belle.:)

Its amazing how a handful of words can make a great impression.
This poem, is a standing example.
