jellyfish moon
in the winter ink sky
my breath

Rick Daddario










Christmas moon—
the cake for everyone
with all brightness





full moon--
the mother clings
to newly born





veiled moon--
sky staring with
blinking eyes


P K Padhy, India










ice moon
blue patched jeans hang
like stalactites

Barbara A Taylor










murky pond
the moon smothered
under lily pads

sanjuktaa









the Moon
phases of the Moon barefoot
the sleep walker





the dawn divided
the night from the day honeymoon
in the mountains

Tatjana Debeljacki
Srbija








night shift
just that crazy white moon
and me

pat nelson









the same face again -
clear midnight blue

comrade harps









wearing white
at the moon party –
moonflower

.
hungry
at the party we eat
the moon
.
Stella Pierides










I've waited
sliver by sliver for
this fool's moon


ephemeral snow -
just your face now moon
to whiten my dreams

sprite























Gillena Cox









cloud veiled moon only a moment to view halo

Yousei Hime








the ocean night
a doorway to the universe
and moon

Rick Daddario









where is your comfort
in your smoke and flame?
the Dragon's moon

slow-is-fast

    I like your sense of time, Bandit.
