Moon poems are almost always magical. <br /><br />One of my favorite books is Frank Asch's <i>Happy Birthday, Moon</i>, which goes really well with the Sandburg quote.Diane Mayrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09767689319000732296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-71152770174978880522016-07-23T14:26:11.183-04:002016-07-23T14:26:11.183-04:00As usual, something new and delicious to discover!...As usual, something new and delicious to discover!

This is stunning, a new twist to ponder. Each one takes a new journey. I love how he manipulated the picture and wrote, love that "lunar unicorn".

Also, I like this stanza in particular, in part because it sounds like the moon is a "he" ? (That all by itself is surprising!)<br /><br />A bundle of light is the moon<br />on a sleigh. The sky<br />worries, when will he return?<br />Where have they taken him?<br /><br />Thank you, Tabatha, as ever. xoIrene Lathamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905936104127707762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91636461349673530.post-7919995687333734592016-07-22T08:36:15.638-04:002016-07-22T08:36:15.638-04:00Oh, that is a lovely fairy tale and homage.

But I don't like it. Or do I? For some reason I find the images disturbing. Definitely, so far with one reading, my fav part is the part you quoted. That is a beauty! Thanks for sharing!
