O Loud And Silent Moon Poem by Max Reif

O Loud And Silent Moon

Rating: 5.0


The moon exploded
over our hill tonight

and quickly floated
up like a small balloon.

Does anyone know
how Silence
can shout so loud,

then a moment later,
press an elegant
finger to its lips

and show you all
you'll ever want to know?

I like dramatic titles like this. The image of the moon and the character of Silence-! yes! , 'all you'll ever want to know'.

This is great Max. It seems like you are taking a new direction but your imagery is still great and this one, forefills waht a poem should.

Great poem...I agree loud is not only defined by the guidelines of sound.
