Moon Tonight

by Gwendolyn Bennett (1902-1981)

Moon tonight,

Beloved . . .

When twilight

Has gathered together

The ends

Of her soft robe

And the last bird-call

Has died.

Moon tonight—

Cool as a forgotten dream,

Dearer than lost twilights

Among trees where birds sing

No more.

A gentle reminder of how we do things: 🐱🐶🐦

Do not troll the diary. If you hate pootie diaries, leave now. No harm, no foul.

Please do share pics of your fur kids! If you have health/behavior issues with your pets, feel free to bring it to the community.

Pooties are cats; Woozles are dogs. Birds... are birds! Peeps are people.

Whatever happens in the outer blog STAYS in the outer blog. If you’re having “issues” with another Kossack, keep it “out there.” This is a place to relax and play; please treat it accordingly.
