Moon Song

 

Tonight is August's Full Moon, The Sturgeon Moon, and a beautiful one it is.  Big and bright and bountiful. 

(If you'd like to indulge in more moon poetry, you can have a look at my recent post on my main blog: Blue Moon Postlude)

Morning Song - Sara Teasdale

A diamond of a morning 

Waked me an hour too soon;

Dawn had taken in the stars 

And left the faint white moon. 

O white moon, you are lonely, 

It is the same with me,

But we have the world to roam over, 

Only the lonely are free.
