Best Familymoon Poems

Overheard Myself

I overheard
          a four-year old ask his dad
      why he saw the moon at daytime,
               but never saw the sun
                         at night.


                  Quite unprepared,
        the father pondered for a while
          on how to explain the matter
              with an answer truthful
                        and right.


                 I grinned, recalled
          I was four, my dad fumbled,
         same question, same delight,
         pale moon out there in broad
                         daylight!
