A High IQ
The moon shines
outside the box
With a genius of light
it gets through to the dark

This is awesome. And now I really want “genius” to be a flock of birds — a genius of pelicans or something. 🙂
Do you know “IQ” by Ani DiFranco? Such a good song.

Lovely imagery and play on words. It seems all of nature was given a dose of genius in order to survive, although I’m not so sure about humankind.

Nature is always wiser and kinder, only if we humans understood this and respected nature.

In a tight situation, the moon always knows what to do!

That step outside the box often get us (and those we touch) wonderfully far.

A light bulb moment. The moon outside lit up and me inside my box house. The title is just brilliant!

The moon is mesmerizing. I loved its brightness last night and suspect it inspired your lovely poem.
