Hi folks :)
This is just a little poem I wrote for Saf and Damon that represents a
special little moment that occured on the #ranma! IRC channel last night.
It's simple but I think it worked :) Hope ya like it.
Once or twice a year, usually in the fall and spring, the earth passes
between the sun and the moon. The earth then casts a shadow onto the moon,
turning it a coppery orange colour, that as a kid, reminded me of tigers.
This is known as a Harvest Moon. But I called it a Tiger Moon . . .
The Tiger Moon
by Andy Skuse (Panda)
The Tiger Moon
Shines down tonight
Two hearts look up
To see its light
They stare into
Its tawny glow
One thinks three words
The other- "I know . . ."
Two points of light
That yearn to meet
Must wait for time-
Too slow the beat
And so they stare
Night after night
And count the days
Until their flight . . .
When they will reach
Beyond too soon
To finally share
The Tiger Moon
Have fun in June kids ;)
