The Poet's Moon

The Poet's Moon, titled after one of the poems, is a collection of my poetry and short stories. The works are separated into sections from Though Provoking, Humorous, and Oddities. Here is a sample from the back cover.My MoonGod gave me a moon to sit upon,To write about stars in the sky.And as I was creating a poem,A little gold fairy came by.She said, "This is a glorious night, dear,With wondrous sights to see.And I'll happily take you to see them,If you write a poem about me."So I wrote about her gossamer wings,Of blue and red and green.I wrote about her silky blonde hair,And her dress that befit a queen.She then sprinkled me with star dust,And took me by the hand.We flew across the Milky Way,And what I saw was just grand.There were shooting stars lighting up the sky, And new stars that were forming.I even got to see Haley's Comet,And I'm telling you it was heart-warming.After flitting about the magnificent cosmos,I was returned to my little moon.I sincerely thanked the little gold fairy,And hoped I'd see her again soon.I picked up my pen to write a poem,About the illustrious creation's of God.After all I'd seen I looked at my words,And my insignificant poem seemed flawed.
