Shivering Moon Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Shivering Moon

Rating: 5.0


Will be back soon,
said the full moon,
but she took a month,
and
stars had to face
a too dark night,
milky way was bright,
there was no moon light,
a starry night,
pilgrims of the Milky Way,
the toys of clay,
find an opportunity
to travel very high,
up above in the blue sky,

Behold! giving only a glimpse of beauty,
crescent is back on duty,
come on all you guys!
have a look at the skies,
then like a night bird fly,
it's your mission that’s why,

May take a fortnight
to strip moon light,
but rights are never stopped,
Lol! the darkness is dropped!

Very nice poem.. though it's daytime but the poem makes me see a sky full with stars and a crescent moon. Good thought that stars had to face a too dark night without the moon.. & the title is beautiful.

Full moon has given promise to come back soon. Bright milky ways will be pilgrims. Dropping of darkness will adore light with such an interesting and amazing imagery. Very beautiful poem shared really. Interesting...10
