Blue Moon in February


The moon, still and cold
is unreachable tonight,
as far away as

Your face,
pale and blue
glowing by the light from the

Television
left on to spout it's nonsense
into our subconscious minds
as we

Sleep, and dream
of the days when light,
dancing on rough waters
spilled from

The moon, still and cold
is unreachable tonight,
as far away as
...

  1. this is really good Mike! the full moon was fantastic this month! what a mess we humans made of what we were put in charge to look after....reminds me of
    Psalms 8

    When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers—
    the moon and the stars you set in place—
    what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them?
    Yet you made them only a little lower than God
    and crowned them with glory and honor.
    You gave them charge of everything you made,
    putting all things under their authority—
    the flocks and the herds
    and all the wild animals,
    the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea,
    and everything that swims the ocean currents.

    O Lord, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth!
