THE MORNING MOON
Such rebel moon to tarry so
Way beyond your time to go
Clinging onto this days light
Displaced beauty of the night
Hanging there in pale blue sky
Clinging on in regal right
Not one to leave without a
fight
So special and so rare a sight
What secrets would you have
me know
As brother sun sets out to
glow
With daylight really not your
time
And strangely, it is neither
mine
Do you seek to find some
magic way
To lounge within the light of
day
To have your beauty known to
all
Which oft is lost to nights
dark caul
For I view you there as bold as
brass
On certain days in autumn's
blast
A rebel orb as white as snow
Crying down a sorrowed glow
The queen of night held dear
in awe
A beacon gripped in earth's
grim paw
A lonely sight as ever seen
And I wonder if I hear you
keen
But hark, I hear small children
sigh
See raptured stares from
Windows high
Wide wondrous eyes to
brightening sky
A children's moon for them to
spy
And I smile...

Lovely right yet again Marion, as you said to me once, every now and again you hit a Jackpot... well I reckon you have been on a winning streak recently. Kind regards, your Friend, The Fish of the Sea
I actually wrote this in 2019 but Yiyan and I were discussing the children's moon and he challenged me to write about it but I already had, then he couldn't find it on my page so I republished it...thankyou for liking it my friend 💕
Oh Marion, thank you for a million
The morning moon is children's moon
Its beauty never fades and lives in your poem
Hi love, yes, I originally posted it with the heading the children's moon but had to change it for this post as I same titles can't be posted twice...you prob couldn't find it cos it was so far back.on my page...I wrote it because after night shift I would catch the moon in early daylight sometimes with the sun visible also. I dedicated this one to my two tiny grandchildren. I find the moon magical as do many, thankyou so much for showing interest, appreciated greatly Yiyan...💕
Grateful for your effort and explanation. Actually "morning moon" is a better title for this poem as you described! Your lovely grand kids are proud of their gran! I did search on "children's moon + your name" and must be something wrong with the way it does - never mind - once again a big thankyou.
🤗🤗🤗
Hahahaha.... Begging for hugs... Oh dear that got me laughing, Marion... hahaha
The poem though, the poem is just sublime... Not a laugh from that, just a huge load of admiration for your gift of writing such beautiful, beautiful poetry. This is a gorgeous poem x
