so big—
i could almost reach out and
touch the moon
My picture, it’s not very clear but that’s okay. At first when I saw it, the moon was low in the sky and it was big, so big. Heading home, I pulled the car to the curb, walked over to the chain-link fence and took out my phone. “Look at the moon,” I said to a man walking alone. He stopped and turned to look back. “It’s called a supermoon,” I explained. We stood there a while taking it in. “Yes, it’s full,” he spoke softly, “I don’t know why I didn’t see it. My mind must’ve been lost in thoughts. Thanks.” For a moment I thought to myself….No, I can’t touch it but i can take it home and write about it.
