Awake from the Moon

This evening Sherry Blue Sky has enticed us to find blessings from the things in the sky. 


Suprise, surprise; 
  Blessing Opposite 

I look at the moon, 
I'm trying to sleep 
Sleep hard to come 
Ever let's me sleep?  
Tonight's one of those 

Try to sleep I do 
She thinks I'm in love 
Moon brilliant lady she 
She has love juice ooze 
Tries to juice me up 

Blessings from all that?
Would I love her more 
If there's any mine 
Love her not really 
Still that I don't feel 
 
I do feel the juices 
And I'm not surprised 
She has it written 
Written smeared for me 
But that doesn't take 

All that I'm thinking 
She keeps me awake 
. . .

Quite a few moon poems this week! I have nights were sleep just won't come too. I don't mind the moon shining into my room, I kind of like it, it's rather comforting.

Think of the moon as a lullaby.
