Moonshine
Light-headed moon
100 proof shine
High on life
in a black-out night

This is a great moon poem! I believe it will be even brighter tonight……(3/27 is the actual full moon date)!!
PS Did I tell you, Sophia is into the moon! She is a Cancer after all.

Gotta watch out for that 100 proof moonshine – it makes you light-headed for a short while, but your head hangs heavy the next day.
Love the imagery and the play on moon/shine.

[…] late 1980’s and has resulted in 100’s of haiku-like poetic translations about the moon (like THIS most recent one). I guess I need to start collecting them or at least give them their own blog […]

Never had moonshine, but have tried sap beer, a femented concoction made with maple sap. That stuff will warm your toes!! Loved the word play, the double meaning in this brief little poem.
