If I Swallowed the Moon
If I
swallowed the moon,
what
would you see?
Would my love be transparent
for
all folks to read?
Would my words and emotions,
sparkle like stars?
Or
twinkle like diamonds,
or
fireflies in jars?
Would you see the reflection,
of
my soul and heart?
My
world all unmasked,
not
a glimmer of dark.
Would you know me,
if
my light - was all you could see?
No
body or form
just
my spirit set free?
'Twas a dream I once had,
in
the dark of the night;
when
the moon was a warm,
brilliant globe of pure light.
So
if you awaken
with
light in your room,
it
may be that I have
just
swallowed
the
moon.

Life in the Pond: Thoughts on Moonlight, Ripples, Hearts, and Frogs
I love this book. I read and re-read it. Each new reading brings a
different meaning to the same words. I've attained a new way of looking
at many things I've overlooked for a long time. This is one of those
"WAKE-UP!" books that the world needs so very much. Thank you Ms Burns!

Life in the Pond: This was a wonderful read. I have it on my Kindle and have already read it several times. I keep finding more and more to relate to in this wonderful book. This would make a great Christmas gift for any reader. -- David K.Hogue
