Full & Bright

The moon is a silver silhouette and a singing stalactite.
The moon is a bringer of fool's gold and fine phantoms.
On the heaving restless sea or the fixed and fastened land
The moon is a friend for the lonesome to talk with.
The moon is at once easy and costly, cheap and priceless.
The price of the moon runs beyond all adding machine numbers.
Summer moonmusic drops down adagio sostenuto whathaveyou.
Winter moonmusic practices the mind of man for a long trip.
The price of the moon is an orange and a few kind words.
~ Carl Sandburg

The moon shines full and bright tonight, listening to wishes, watching over us all. It almost looks like a sunrise here, as a result of the long exposure.

In Highschool, I did my Junior thesis on the works of Carl Sandburg. He's been one of my favorite poets ever since, and he has some beautiful poems of the moon.

My sinuses are bothering me today, but when hubby came home from picking up eggrolls, he said "if you haven't got a photo to blip yet, you should get one of the moon and clouds." So I did. Such a good guy, always looking out for me.
