POEM STARTER

Write a poem about a blood moon.

A total lunar eclipse is sometimes referred to as a blood moon due to the red hue it takes on. What themes or imagery might inspire poetry?

Rises

You open the door for me

Let me walk out first

Stand outside

Wait for you to lock up

Look into the sky

there it is

a blood moon

Why is it that the moon is referenced with us so much?

I point it out

You look up

I shiver from the night time breeze

As I walk quickly to your car

I sit in the passenger seat and stare at it as we talk

Then a memory floods into my brain

when I was little

The clear night sky in the summer

I would love to watch it follow me

Where ever I went it followed

I would look up at it and wonder if whoever I was gonna end up with was looking at it too

The normal cliche you hear about in movies

Now years later

I get to stare at it and

Admire it , with you in my life

The white pearl in the sky that never leaves

Or in this case the blood moon
