A Stretch of the Imagination

diminished hexaverse using words rather than syllables Moon dust is said to cause woe for earthling’s noses and lungs. Powdery particles eat through stainless steel, stick like glue and congest breathing. I mention in passing another threat - moon dust jams expensive electronic equipment. Moon dust floats down unknowingly to earth carrying deep secrets from the lunar atmosphere like invisible snow - pixie dust which beguiles enchanted earthlings with ecstasy. Some dreamers have insisted that these invasive particles when dispersed upon them, totally transfixes two teenagers: increasing their chances for physical attraction - magical, mesmeric magnetism, doubling parents' apprehension and angst.

thanks, Jan, I think the alliteration gives it color in the absence of rhyme . Glad for the comment and it is nice that you noticed it.

This had to be the most imaginative poem of the bunch, and the title was quite fitting!! Is all that beginning stuff really true about moon dust?? The last part was so cute!! Congrats in my contest
