"Poeming"

You worry that you are not writing enough poetry
& I can't respond, having written nothing today.

I went out on the porch to shut off the light
saw the Moon behind thin clouds, almost full

like your breast behind lace, I imagine
& didn't write a poem about it.

From Therese B. -- Lovely poem, Dan. Great simile for the moon, for the muse of poeming. Thanks for sharing this.
