Notes About The Poem

Science Fiction Poetry Contest N/A

Moon Water

News is there is water ice on the darkest side
of the moon, I wouldn’t drink it just yet,
A gray dirt snow cone is what we’ll get!  
Sustaining the cislunar economy, or 
linking the moon to the Earth is everything.

Our psyche thirsts for it, bursts of lunar power.
Moon water made during the full moon 
or the new moon is most potent.
Tapping into the Luna’s source by steeping
it’s moonglaze, and underneath tomorrow’s
“Ice Moon” it’ll be charged fully.

We are seventy percent water.
The moon affects earthly phenomena,
like tides with its gravitational force.
Our mental state changes with the moon’s phases.
We absorb the Luna's positive aura.
A rare thunderstorm on a full luminous orb, 
collects in a glass the energy of the moon 
directly under its glow. Charged by the moon’s energy,
Energy so intense it moves oceans!

"Ice moon" that charges our minds with an imaginative "what if." Anaya, your delightful, speculative lines on the moon's influence, its ability to hold our gaze + wonder make for grand pondering. Thank you for this intriguing poem. All the best, Brian

It is amazing what power the moon has since it has the gravitational pull on the earth and water upon it. Thanks for sharing this information with us in the form of poetry. Sara K

Water, water, every where,. Nor any drop to drink. Yes there is water at the moon’s poles, frozen inside craters, I’m sure we will harvest and filter it at some point in the future, so poetic your last four lines, they move oceans indeed! Great one for contest, cheers David

I am Anaya, your poem is quite enchanting! Your words build a cosmic tale, capturing the essence of moonwater and its mystical influence on us. The imagery of a "gray dirt snow cone" and the moon's energy moving oceans is vivid and resonates deeply. Blessings Daniel
