Perhaps the man in the moon
Is not a man at all
Perhaps he’s just a little boy
One who’s rather small

He likes to hang around by day
In the light, he can’t be seen
Swinging merrily, above the clouds
His expression, quite serene

But, the only way to truly know
Is to awaken from your dream
Sadly, that would chase him away
And that’s really too extreme

So, let your imagination take you
Let the sandman lead you on
Before the light of day appears
And the illusion, all at once, is gone

I watched you as you made your move

You planted your lips on mine, so smooth

Your eyes, like sapphires, sparkled bright

Beguiled me, in the bright moonlight

Extended, your hand reached for mine

You pulled me close, our bodies entwined

Savored moments, tickled with bliss

All from the touch of a feathery kiss

Will I ever be ‘Discover’ed? ~ #poetry to #ponder

I wonder if I will ever uncover

The secret behind WordPress’s Discover

It used to be Freshly Pressed, long ago

But that disappeared, to where? I don’t know

I checked it out once, then checked it again

I still didn’t see me, I’m wondering when

I’ll make it to the big time, a rising star

And change the license plate on my car

Yes! Everyone will know just who I am

Hubby, the kids and even Gram

So they can shout, she’s like no other!

You can finally find her on ‘Discover’!
