I am moonstruck again I guess!!


As I always feel it deep inside


I always get this weird feeling of mystery when I look at the moon...


It’s like someone is watching me from afar...scary…huh!!

MOON FACE

When the Moon
Newly return alive
Another person
Will show me the Moon
We look towards the place
At which the other
Has shown me the Moon
And when we look thither
When we perceive it
We shut our eyes with our hands
We exclaim
Holy yonder!
Take my face yonder
Thou shall give me the face yonder
Thou shall take my face yonder
That which does not feel pleasant
Thou shall give me thy face
With which thou
When thou have died
Thou dost again
Living return
When we did not
Perceive thee
Thou dost again
Lying down come
That I may also
Resemble thee
Oh! Moon lying there
Let my early morning see you
When the Moon
Newly return
Thou shall give me thy face yonder
Thou shall take my face yonder
I may also resemble thee
Which sits together
Like Star and Moon
Oh! Moon please
Newly return
Thou shall take
Thy face yonder

The Man in the Moon is a wiley fellow, Tinka. He softly gathers the secrets of our soul. We are left open and vulnerable. That's why you feel he is watching you. He reflects them back to you. Oh I like this write, but then just mention the moon and I'm anybody's fool, lol!

Looked at a full moon the other day and marveled at the wonder of it. Unlike primitive people who planned their lives around its phases, we seldom get to see its full allure. Thanks for reminding us.

Awww. One of the last times I saw my son. I told him at eight oclock to look at the moon and I will too. Thinking of eachother. I wonder if he remembers?

To an African, the moon is such an important thing. We do a lot of things when the moon shines.We sing moon songs,we tell tales by moon light,etc. This particular poem captures a true essence of the moon, moreso, the face. Lovely!
