MAN IN THE MOON
I’m Man in the Moon,
not some bad cartoon!
My crescent
is a shimmery pearlescent.

A new take on that old man moon-terrific, Rosi. Love that talk back, "not some bad cartoon'!
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific choice of celebrity, Rosi! "Shimmery pearlescent" is most sigh-worthy.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Michelle. Shimmery pearlescent is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the kind comments. Just having some fun here!
ReplyDeleteNice one, Rosi!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun clerihew. Clever to think of the man in the moon. I stand with everyone else. Shimmery pearlescent brings wonderful images to my mind. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely introduction to the clerihew. Thanks for sharing the link Rosi. Fun blog!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to Today's Little Ditty, Nancy! Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteRosi, I like how this poem turned out. Also that it was such a short, concise poem.
ReplyDeleteOn another note, I just finished reading (and reviewing) Kwami Alexander's book. Awesome. I love it from start to finish. Can't say enough good things about it!
The clerihews have been a delight. I love this Rosi. So much fun!
