Moon Spoon Serenade

Written: March 3rd, 2025 for contest Sponsored by: Kai Michael Neumann Quote" There is a moon inside every human being. Learn to be companions with it". By Rumi ************************ If I could I would fetch you the moon on a spoon, A silver ladle cradling that celestial charm, reflecting dreams woven in its light, a beacon of hope, glowing in the night sky. With every dip, I would capture stardust wonder, sprinkling inspirations across your path, gently lowering the heavens to your reach to illuminate the beauty within your grasp. This spoon, an extension of my heart's desire, would gift you galaxies beyond mere sight. Each scoop a promise of infinite possibilities, for you are worthy of such ethereal gifts. If I could, I would fetch you the moon on a spoon, wished upon a distant star, an angel longing as my plaything. A paper lantern floating akin to a balloon, a magic wand in hand, I would blow bubbles into fine glass jars, sending them around the world to shed a path of divine light. Thinking of sweet ideas, inspired by our celestial planet. She took a spoon in a flurry to dip in Milky Way cornets in a hurry, Fetching her angel the moon, solid and proud. emotions weak but potions strong, a dauber with dungarees smeared from paraffin slopes, they trampled. With poise unseen by iron-hooved men, dreams floated high above troughs and sparred skies.

Dear dr sotto, This is such a cosmically pleasing and heartwarming poem, woven with starry beams, in such a soulful manner: i love you use of descriptive language to paint imagery and to express how much one means to you in a flawless rhythm: theres so many lines in this that stood out for me especially "A paper lantern floating akin to a balloon, a magic wand in hand, I would blow bubbles into fine glass jars, sending them around the world to shed a path of divine light." So beautiful! Definitely a top winner! Best wishes! Sending you light always! Pleasure always reading your poems

SP, I see this work as praise for dreams of love and admiration of all kinds of beauty. It's filled with lovely sentiment that we only wish we had the power to create. I do believe we can make this happen in our local space provided we really wish to. Smiles!! I also liked the long round of applause at the end of the music. Some members of the band appear to be soldiers. Smiles!!
