Diana, I love this delicate poem! Funny how the moon inspires poetry. I wrote one last full moon, and so did another member.

This is trully inspirational. can i have more of your poems, eight is not enough for me. the writting is beautiful. I am sure that you are or were a poetry teacher at once..lol.
