Man in the Moon Outed

the unusual seems to want tender
beneath a full moon breakable
a careful cloud scuttles across its anxious
angels flying hushed tonight
when the time is compliant they will bring their fragile
deposit careful kisses upon his clever
before they leave they take them back blushing
the moon tames the clouds and shines naughtily
a tear in the corner of his precious
man in the moon has removed himself from the closet
telling the stars curious and cleverly
that he waits
for the cow that jumped over the moon

Jerry,
i like how you take something so familiar
to all of us and make it interesting once
again by giving it an original and personal
interpretation

I detect a very mischievousness fellow here
"angels flying hushed tonight" and the reason
they are flying hushed is they know this fellow
is up to something.

You are an imp my friend and I am laughing over
this very fairy like tale you have given us.

Wonderful Jerry!

Love and Light
Lily
