Hello readers and followers, … my “Moon” poem theme continues today with a repost from September 2019, and I hope you are all enjoying my collection of “Moonolgues”
A Midday Moon
Surprise, surprise, up there in the sky
Hidden by the glare, of noon’s golden eye
I saw the moon, being cradled by the midday sun
There, glowing like a silver button
As hundreds of human’s passed me unawares
I was staring in wonderment, at our worlds brightest stars
The sun’s white ray’s, wore soft gloves of silk
And the moon was like a baby, enjoying mother’s milk
A chance of a lifetime I captured
Our sun and moon’s moment of embracing rapture
Ivor Steven (c) September 2019
OH! This is one of your very best poems, Ivor! π
I’ve had that happen…seen the moon and the sun in the sky at the exact same time and I stopped to stare and to smile! I felt honored to see them sharing space and time! π
A reminder to me that the moon, my kin, is always there for me…even when I can’t see it. (I’ve always felt akin to the moon! π )
Perfect poem, photo, song trio! The song/video brought tears to my eyes!
I am so grateful for the people throughout my life who have helped me breathe, who have brought me joy and laughter! π
HUGS!!! π

It’s always there, just that it is normally invisible due to the sun’s intensity. Best time to take photos of the moon is early morning shortly after sunrise.
