JC Brul Poet Verse

May is for Moon

"May is green and pink and red.” — Richard L. Ratliff



When green buds of May are half awake,
my cat's sleepy eyes in them I see ~
And when they bloom in dappled sunlight,
her pink nose in petals I recall;
Red roses waltz gracefully at noon,
but the garden is always empty 
without my dearly beloved Moon.
