The Balloon

“What is the news of the day,

Good neighbor, I pray?”

“They say the balloon

Is gone up to the moon!”

Poetry Friday: Playful

So, I'm still working on a poetry collection for a hotel in Cancun. I posted this poem from the work last week at my blog, but thought I'd share it here as well.

Playful

The moon plays
hopscotch over the waves,
hide and seek
in the fluttering curtains,
and tags my daughter's cheek
with a glimmering kiss.

Lorie Ann Grover, 2009
