Notes About The Poem

Quatern Poetry Contest sponsored by Joseph May

A Delightful Night

The moon was full so big and bright 
You should have seen it late last night 
A million stars winked out there too! 
And then, it made me think of you 

It really was an awesome sight 
The moon was full so big and bright 
And then, it left me feeling blue 
My darling wife, our love is true 

Yet, something that I thought to do 
Last night I really thought it through 
The moon was full so big and bright 
A perfect time for candlelight 

Alone together just us two 
The moon and stars were there on cue 
Then we made love, the time was right 
The moon was full so big and bright
