I am the cat sitting on the fence, meowing, Asking what are you doing, my Man in the Moon. I look and turn my head left and right. Now and then I see clouds come to cover you. I know you are just staying where you are. There are nights when you are a different size. The eclipses make you a crescent, Or a half, or a full moon. It is a wonder that you move along in the night. With time, you follow as from night to morn. Amazing, my Man in the Moon. Meow. Thanks to you, I see my shadow at times. Are you the sun in day, changing to moon at night? I wonder. On cloudy days, are you resting or asleep? Doesn't matter, as you come at the right times. I know you don't disappear, as I see you again. A wonder is when stars come out and sparkle the sky, Along with you, shining bright. My Man in the Moon. Oh, what a glorious sight.   © By Lilly (Lilprincessitali@aol.com)         Watch these pages for more poems by Lilly.
