Notes About The Poem

poem submitted to “Seven by Seven” poetry contest, Nette Onclaud, sponsor, 4/8/2026

PAPER MOON

it’s only a paper moon,
a near-invisible pulse~
a shimmer felt, not witnessed,
light unbound from its own shape,
vibration more than presence,
known only as it quivers~
a hush brushing through the soul.
