One night I just could not get the moon out of my head.
I wrote several somewhat bizarre verses in 5-7-5 about
the moon. Surely we all know the references to the moon
being made of green cheese.
Some of these are somewhat comical and after reading
them, they made me giggle so I thought I would share them.
If I am slightly off beat and you find these odd, oh well. I
embrace it!
The man in the moon
We know him as Neil Armstrong
But does he eat cheese.
First Man on Moon Walking on the Moon
And here are some links to information about Neil Armstrong.

Who is the man in
The moon. Is he happy that
Cow jumped over him.
Cow Jump Over Moon
And I found a truly fascinating illustrated copy of
Hey Diddle Diddle and Baby Bunting, by Randolph Caldecott
courtesy of Project Gutenberg. You REALLY need to check
this out. The illustrations are wonderful.

Sliver half or whole
Is this the cheese or the moon
That we talk about.

Oh sliver of moon.
