Red moon sinking
through layered clouds
moonlings watch in wonder
moonset early a.m. March 19

Sweet Planet Poems 
Yelena, what a beautiful thing to say. Such a compliment – thank you.
Love both the photos and your verse, can you allow me to meditate on it?:-)So soothing and dreamy.
A very steady hand, Monica!
Thank you, Ian. That says it all.
Hi Laz, Thank you my friend.
Hello Androgoth, Thank you most kindly for your fine comments and good wishes.
Beautiful sequence of pics Princess, calming to see, puts us all in perspective , no sun , no moon, no mankind.
Ian
Just lucky that morning. By evening we had clouds.
I think that’s a really good way to feel, Pen. Thanks for your lovely comment.
Thanks, Bluebee. I was pretty proud of my photos – taken without a tripod!
You got a good view of the moon. Mine photos were not so great.
Love this one, Monica
Thanks for sharing… all
Peace to you, my friend
Laz
Beautiful descriptive words and beautiful moon, clothing itself in red, and I’m a moonling Monica, … always watching in wonder and feeling so, so small … xPenx
“Moonlings” – how wonderful, Monica – and what brilliant photos – it was puring here so we didn’t see this marvel, so thanks. 🙂 bb
Kenny, that is so good.
A close approach and a nice approach also,
I have to agree with Kenny, Moonling’s is a
rather nice description… A very good poem
my wickedly fine friend, have a really nice
rest of evening now Monica…
