The Moon for Throwback Thursday

We love the sun and some of us love the moon also. So, for this weeks Throwback Thursday, a few posts dedicated to the mighty moon; naturally 😉 Direct from the archives – the crescent moon and the full moon: Let the howling commence!

“A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away.” ― Eudora Welty

Moon and Sun

Early morning blue skies
With the crescent moon up high
The sun soon to be rising
Both of them each other sizing
Neither of them compromising
Soon enough, two bright lights
Shining up in the skies

Dark Side of the Crescent Moon (TBT)

Posted in the Throwback Thursday

You can be the moon and still be jealous of the stars” Gary Allan

Dark Side of the Crescent Moon

In the darkness
Of the silent night
Staring into the blackness
With only guiding light
The crescent moon
Eyes fully tuned
Watching each step
So not to misstep
From the narrow road
With a stride slowed
The dark side tempting
But towards the light bending
Which side will win
And paint your skin
With its mark

Full Moon for Daily Photo

“And Fall, with her yeller harvest moon and the hills growin’ brown and golden under a sinkin’ sun” Roy Bean

Distant Moon

full-moon-5

Spinning out from orbit
Like a sugar rush tripping hobbit
If you think about it
It may sound quite horrid
You may even feel worried
But, before you vomit
Another comet
May fill the empty space
And be a much nicer place!

Full Moon for Daily Photo

“And Fall, with her yeller harvest moon and the hills growin’ brown and golden under a sinkin’ sun” Roy Bean

Copper Moon

full-moon-1

The copper shaded moon
Has reached its full bloom
Rusty and round
Lighting
The night ground
If you were looking for treasure
To be a person of leisure
Then this is
The wrong rainbow!

White Moon

Shining brightly
Tonight oh so whitely
Like a Christmas song
Banging the gong
The full moon
Came out at noon

Hello October: Month of wellingtons and mackintoshes!

“Everyone is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.” Mark Twain

October Moon

Shiny objects in the sky
Was it an unidentified fly by
Or just the crescent moon up high
Shining its light in this fool’s eye

“Photography is more than a medium for factual communication of ideas. It is a creative art” Ansel Adams

Moon, Moon, where art thou?

Moon, moon
Where art thou moon?
Come out from your hiding
On the nightly path guiding
Before off the trail
I go slipping and sliding

“When a dog barks at the moon, then it is religion; but when he barks at strangers, it is patriotism” David Starr Jordan

Hidden Moon

Before the rising sun
Let’s have some fun
In the darkness of the night
Not a living soul in sight
In the moonlit sky
It is hard to deny
One’s true nature
Without any failure
Singing to a different tune
When howling at the moon
