For IGWRT ~ Micro Poetry ~ And The Moon ~

-

and the moon came early shining to show
its presence...have you ever wondered
why it is always so calm ?
see the day has been so warm 
taking the toll energy and heat
sweaty is the body tired,the feet
and the moon comes in,cool
silently to fill the vacant pool
with soothing loving light
staying on till it is the end of night....

The calmness of the moon shines through your poem, Anjum. I love the reply to the rhetorical question, that 'the day has been so warm /
taking the toll energy and heat / sweaty is the body, tired the feet' followed by the beautifully cool imagery of the moon pool.

For POETS UNITED Midweek Motif ~ Summer Solstice ~ The Earth Stands Still ~

The Earth stands still while we say tis the Sun up all day, shining stronger getting hotter come what may, who  can put a shade across tis not a car that you drive in  so you can cover the windscreen and block the heat- how days become long and nights become short,when the heart is heavy and grief is strong,when blood spills spurts spreads and flows,strange power shows,slows time dragging it to a still point,Earth seems stilled- as is the breath of a loved one,who feels the heat or cold when guns are sold to all,the license to shoot and kill is handed as protection,who is protecting who is killing?  acceptance and non-acceptance is in the inner will' Unreal cities,unreal people, so unlike what we expect War war and again war-when will it end,terror strikes Shelter is scarce, fashion abounds and all is a show off!  young dead glorified on the mini screen,dying for respect for what now? half the barren land, minerals in rang...
