Best Over The Moon Poems

He curls his lithe frame around mine.
All arms and legs, a fluttering heart
As a little bird’s, frightened but brave.
I kiss him, he tastes like oranges,
fresh strawberries, and courage.

I smile the sun into his green eyes,
Braid starlight in his curls, lick salt
From his skin, the shore...

I realize the moon
Is not far, after I placed my arm
                  Around you...

Sometimes, when I speak to you
     my true feelings I shyly hide,
to put them in a secret room
     and keep them tucked inside.

Opening my heart takes time
     it's a spot reserved for very...

If you could've been saved, I would've been over the moon.
But you died and you were taken far too soon.
You had to have a hysterectomy and your left leg amputated.
You were in so much pain, it was something that I truly hated.

My brother and I...

massacres appear vainglorious for the victor...what about those who
suffer the loss...who have their brains removed as a whole...who cried out
with no one listening as the distortions were so grindingly an affront
pilgrims and others coming to this new land of glorious possibilities...
decimating all in their path...

Hey diddle diddle
I don’t play the fiddle
But I do love to tinkle the keys
I play them with ease
Will you sing along, please?
The classics or a hip hop rock tune
But don’t get me wrong
My kids strum along
And the vibrations will shake up a room
The guys in...

Feeding from darkness 
looking out 
into space 
at the warning 
crescent moon 
deep thoughts
in crystal clearness 

Cold faced 
stars twinkling 
strong winds whistle 
across the brow 
a heart healed 
with feelings 
of deep love 
blowing kisses 
over snow 
capped mountains 

Shining in the night 
you...

BUT WHAT TYPE OF CHANGE
change
Alteration
Subjugation
Observation 
A constant conflagration
Yet change be triumphant over stagnant stems and stalks of winter wheat made 
rancid
The sacrifice of death is but a fire fueled nightmare hurling spittle at it’s spite
A man such as me who owns no hearth within a...

He is over the moon for me.
I am his asteroid, he is my shining star.
We are going to travel the cosmos.
Possibly landing on Saturn or Mars.
I knew she would burn up, but I kept quiet.
Not liking her all that much....

There's a soft glow about her
Bardic feelings she does stir
She waxes and wanes with time
Has changing moods in night mime
Sometimes, she's bright and happy
Sometimes, gloomy and snappy
Her humour affects the seas
High tides and low tides do tease
Her strength is seen in her scars
She shines bright...

I remember when you first lifted your head,
Expanding your sight beyond me.
Eyes wide with curiosity.

I remember when you crawled full speed,
Exploring the world before you.
Hands dirty from touching everything.

I remember when you could walk,
Then run, tearing through the neighborhood.
Feet moved like lightning.

I remember when you...

The little dog laughed to see such sport
And the dish ran away with the spoon
I stared at grandma as she read to us at court.
Wait! I said, the cow jumped over the moon?

Grandma looked less pleased now.
Yes, a gentle, good-natured dairy cow.
How likely is that?...
