Milk Moon 5-5-12

the brightest moon of 2012
Milk Moon.
all day clouds
rain
cold
too cold for May.
At 9:00pm the clouds covered the moon.
I could see the faint glow of light
just a haze of light.
I stood in the back yard
feeling  disappointed by the cloud cover
and the cold.
Hours later
I took a peek out the window to see
This.
big
bright
Moon.
no howling from me
as I stood out there in the dark cold night
of my backyard in pajamas and no shoes
 taking pictures...

Wasn't it beautiful?! We stepped out to see it and it was so bright above our heads that our small cameras couldn't even capture it. Have to keep the memory and sight in my mind.

Not only are your photographs amazing, your way with words is as well ... poetry for our eyes and ears.
