Today is the second day of the month of November, famous for its sugar and caffeine flavour. Taking part in the November Poem-A-Day Chapbook challenge I still am and here is today’s prompt: Full Moon. It has been suggested by Khara House, who is an amazing poet, so click on her name and see more. Here is my poem. Yet another “moon” poem. But, honestly, this one took a different turn.
Full Moon—
as in complete, accomplished,
and perfectly shaped
to raise our dreams or apprehensions,
to feed our mystic cravings, and to
whisper in our darkened nooks
of weirdness unseen, unwaited for, and
un-desired – uneasiness awakened.
For, after all, we are just beings
bathed in profuse light,
clinging to the hope that
light will not desert us
to that full moon’s full-flavoured grip.
