The moon tonight and I...
There's a hot white moon over Missouri;
a catastrophe of a poet in its simple shine,
there’s a day in the life on my breath ―
and blackberry brandy on my mind.

A vibrant portrait of a poet with a pen in one hand and a glass of brandy in the other, sitting up against a tree, looking up into the night sky at the second full-moon of the month, not glowing of the blue it is named for, but so bright on a crystal clear night, one can write poetry beneath its ambient glow in the ambiance of nature...

That's very thoughtful of you, thank you. It’s a beautiful moon tonight. :) No it’s never blue. Not that I’ve ever seen. I didn't see it rise though tonight. The most amazing moon I ever saw was rose pink. Once in a blue moon, instead of the ones that are crimson or orange rising – there will be the most awesome pink. When the moon is colorful it has just left the horizon and truly magnificent.
It reminded me:
Blushing pink is the approach of the padparadscha sun
nestled in the golden cradle that dissolves to lift it,
a paradox that lies beyond the grip of my mind,
blushing pink is the approach of the padparadscha sun. I am that.
thank you for the comment :) enjoy the moon shine.

I kinda miss a warm, after dinner brandy by a fire after a meal. I don't think many people do that any longer.

I saw the moon last night. It lit up the sky. I did not have any brandy though. Lovely little poem Pisha

You're such a sweetheart, thank you. :) I didn't have any either. The moon lets me reflect. It was only the memory of drinking brandy wine from a mason jar that hit me.

Honestly I can't relate to the poem but I love the blend of words, such a poem I'll like to read
while having a glass of brandy.

That's sweet of you and your honesty's refreshing. We should all reflect the open light as our heart absorbs the moon shine, and definitely have a glass of brandy wine now and then. Thank you for the lovely complement. :)
