P.S. Awtry Poet Light Verse

Mr Moon

I wake up in the morning
and sing a happy tune
I nearly spit my coffee out
'cause, look there's the moon!

What's the moon doing out
in the light of day?
I think I'll ask Mr. Moon
and see what he will say!

             * * *
It turns out "Mister" Moon,
is neither girl nor boy
it's gender neutral
and goes out whenever 
it $#$@#* wants to! and I should mind my own %@i&^% business!!!
but I don't know who Karen is...

Andrew Fairchild August 16, 2022 at 1:20 AM I love it, P.S.! It's like a nursery rhyme! Good to read something of yours! I would love to see something new! P.S. Awtry August 22, 2022 at 7:26 PM Thank you and I wrote something new... Always good to hear from you dear Andrew :) ps

Andrew John June 17, 2022 at 2:45 AM Ah, yes, a funny one. I like this one. P.S. Awtry August 22, 2022 at 7:26 PM Hi Andrew, thank you! :) ps

Ann Peck April 19, 2022 at 8:58 AM HaHa! This is funny!I thought Karen was the woman who reported an Oriental woman for living...Her name was Karen. P.S. Awtry August 22, 2022 at 7:25 PM so glad you liked this one Ann :) ps

Jennifer Proxenos March 30, 2022 at 1:01 PM I guess he favors guy or gal, when romance is involved but it seems Mr. Moon has a secret or a gender identity crisis - Karen you mentioned...............?????????????????? A real fun poem! hugs and blessings, Jennifer. P.S. Awtry March 30, 2022 at 4:30 PM Just something silly. A comment about everyone's touchiness and sensitivity these days... I think :)

Jack Horne March 4, 2022 at 8:12 AM LOL, I'm in the dark about Karen but enjoyed this fun P.S. Awtry March 30, 2022 at 4:29 PM "Karen" seems to me to be the new word for "busy body." :)

Bill Baker March 1, 2022 at 10:30 PM Alight moon poem to close out my day. Thanks, P.S. Bill P.S. Awtry March 30, 2022 at 4:29 PM thank you Bill :)

Geoffrey Brewer February 28, 2022 at 8:21 PM Sounds like Mr or Ms or ‘They’ Moon got out of bed the wrong side - perhaps with a slight touch of Karenism; it’s what other people have. Nice one P.S.! P.S. Awtry March 1, 2022 at 9:06 AM Thank you Geoffrey for commenting on this bit of silliness :D

Andrew Fairchild February 4, 2022 at 10:57 PM FUNNY, FUNNY! Always great to read your lyrical and excellent work! Andrew P.S. Awtry February 5, 2022 at 6:51 PM So glad to see your avatar! You are too kind. Thank you! -ps

Andrea Dietrich January 29, 2022 at 10:11 PM hahahaha. I finally learned who karen was when some idiot called me karen on FB. this is really awesome. and i like how you related it to modern life. P.S. Awtry February 5, 2022 at 6:48 PM Thank you Andrea! I am glad you liked this one. :)

Connie Marcum Wong January 21, 2022 at 11:55 PM This is so cute and funny P.S. My granddaughter noticed that the moon looked like it had a face and she pointed it out to me and I told her that’s where the saying the man in the moon comes from. I prefer to think the moon is a female named Luna. : ) P.S. Awtry January 22, 2022 at 6:26 AM When my daughter was a tot, she said with her toddler speak that it was not a man—it was a”dirl.” it is a wonder that we see a face on the moon!. I’m glad you liked this odd little poem. Thank you -ps

Harry Horsman January 20, 2022 at 5:55 AM Oh so clever, this. Love it. P.S. Awtry January 20, 2022 at 7:49 AM Thank you Harry! ~ps

Jennifer Proxenos January 20, 2022 at 3:42 AM MR. AND Mrs. moon and others - perhaps others would be the preferred word. or maybe don't look at the moon whilst sipping coffee. Good one P.S. HUGS, blessings, Jennifer P.S. Awtry January 20, 2022 at 7:49 AM Just a bit of silliness that popped into my head. :D. -ps

Miranda Hawley January 16, 2022 at 9:02 PM This is cute, but I don't think the moon knows who Karen is either. :D P.S. Awtry January 17, 2022 at 4:00 PM Thank you Miranda:o) ~ps

Vijay Pandit January 16, 2022 at 8:35 AM Perhaps the moon is lost or exploring the secrets of daybreak. A moment well captured, PS. P.S. Awtry January 16, 2022 at 10:57 AM Thank you Vijay :o) ~ps
