Super Moon

Blue Moon 

Super moon last night saw it from my terrace
18% brighter and 20% nearer a meteorologist  
On TV said…how dry can one get?

Huge, yellow and beautiful, so close I could 
touch it with a broom handle but I felt its pull
for a moment levitated and dared dream big.

Beauty should be shared till it becomes 
a memory pooled by lovers, but you were not 
there to see this wonder. 

This was not a night for sleeping it was one for 
nearness with the one you love and restless
I walked on sandy lane thinking of your absence.
