Look the moon is tilting back,
to catch a falling star!

A bat as brown as mud.
Wow!Too close for comfort

It's so very dark tonight
Ican’t see very far.
Look the moon is tilting back,
to catch a falling star!

I'm keeping all my blood!

.Hey, look a shooting star up there
flying without sound
I wonder where it shot from
and where they hit the ground?.

' Can you see that moth there? ....
Hovering by the light.
I wonder where he sleeps by day

Now come on stop that hiding,
darkness holds no fear.
Please don't try to scare me.
Ok, I'm outa here!

ReplyDeleteI, too, love the imagery of the moon. It's a great piece, and pretty much exactly how I feel about night! I love the moon and stars. Bats and dark? Not so much.
ReplyDeleteThat's so unusual to be able to hear the poet reading his own verses. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteI'm really loving the Easter Egg on the banner.
I love it. I love the reading it to guest feature as well.
ReplyDeletehow very lovely Keith....nicely done..it is indeed a magical night.
ReplyDeleteThe elements of the mystical moon and the dreamy stars worked beautifully in this whimsical piece using an endearing child-like voice.
ReplyDeleteI am silenced under the magic spell of your words.
I wish you well.

Oh my this reminds me of one night when I took my dog out and a bat almost got caught in my hair!! Excellent visual!! I really enjoyed the poem.

` Nice poem, Rambling Keith! That must be nice, having a dark night away from the city....
ReplyDelete` Don't worry - bloodsucking bats (and moths) only live in South America, and they only attack you when you're asleep.
Keith, just caught all the video clips you have loaded here including your welcome...yes, you are right we all share our love of writing and what a great bond it makes..i also liked the way you read this piece aloud..very nice.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing.
