Notes About The Poem

For the 'FAVORITE THINGS' Poetry Contest of Nette Onclaud

Geese with Moon on Their Wings

Beneath waxing gibbous moon
like a river's flow
geese go gliding gracefully -
on their backs a glow.
As Luna shines on,
their winging is poetry
soaring into dawn.

Oh, so lusciously beautiful, an absolute poetic thrill to read. I did the kittens, cute but not high-test poetry like this is. There was a time when I knew all the words to that song, but the contest made me realize that's no longer true. Love, CayCay

To be honest, of all the choices, it's the one I can't recall from the song. We wonder yet neither has looked it up so we must not wonder enough! CayCay

She doesn't want reference to the song itself. Just how the line makes you feel. I loved this image of the geese and don't even remember. Was that line also in the song??

Ahh!! Reads like a good contender to me. Way to go. I enjoyed reading this one. I have often wondered to those geese continue on their journey during the night and if they rest, do they have certain places they always stop to rest up and eat. Thanks for sharing this one with us. soupmail. Sara K
