Thy Moon I Seek

Thy Moon I seek tonight, Calls the wind to come to light. Blowing the words in my head While I’m whistling as I’m ahead Of all the wild rowdy commotion Featuring the herd with its notion. Thy white moon I seek tonight, Faces the fields to hold me tight. To stop me from walking home As I’m stuck in the world I roam. I appreciate its hefty humble soul, Tucking me tight in fields I stole. Thy bright gleaming moon I seek, Comes to visit me when I’m meek To greet me when I’m at my worst, To greet me when I’m at my best, To listen to my language of art In the end, middle and the start Thy moon I seek tomorrow night. Will make sure I’m in his sight When I’ll visit his fruitful fields It is the night where he shields My twinkle twinkle little star. Good night. I’m going far.

i love this one. Wow, it's like the wind is puffing and blowing the moon outward like a sail, which is so cool. Congrats

Congratulations, Mark, on your 2nd place win in my GRAFFITI contest with this concrete poem in mostly rhyming couplets. The unrhymed, "To greet me when I’m at my worst,/To greet me when I’m at my best", sums up the core message to a T. I had to represent your entry in the moon shape on the winners wall (on my blog) as there was not enough space to accommodate the full poem.
