Maan, Luna's House-Mate Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Maan, Luna's House-mate

look at this, you know what's so special?
Maan, Luna's house-mate,
is always looking for Luna in our garden,
but when Maan saw me, she ran,

she was suddenly gone so quickly,
where had she gone so fast? !
Suddenly in the distance
I saw two glittering eyes curiously looking at me
what I was up to next.

Do you have to remember:
Maan was sitting there high and dry
on the feeding platform of the birdhouse,
actually worth a snapshot,

I went out to see what Maan is going to do.
She started to run, through the hole in the hedge,
I think she ran to her own house, the same 1,5 km away

Last week I had seen a huge frog,
I thought it was quite scary,
such a big beast in the middle of your garden,
I also once saw a hedgehog,
it had to be in the other forest, methinks
this hedgehog used our garden as a shortcut.

I am very satisfied with Luna,
she has our house chosen as her second home.
I can see Maan looking up to Luna,
wherever Luna goes, Maan wants to be there too
