My children were having a conversation in the car and it lead to this:J, "What's a honeymoon?"
E, "It's when honey gets on the moon."
My thought..."honey on the moon." Don't you just instantly see that? The fact that it started with the word honeymoon lead me to a love poem. Short and sweet like a drop of honey. Long on meaning if you are struggling with the sticky strings of love.
Love
Like honey on the moon
I fall right back to you
Slow and golden sweet
My heart’s biggest feat.
Ahhh Inspiration from the mouths of babes...

ReplyDeleteJust perfect. Love the drawing, too.
ReplyDeletePure poetry -- pure as honey! :) Your first two-lines are five-star awesome. A great example of poetic awareness -- taking note of something heard or seen and then taking it somewhere. Lovely!
