Moon saying, ' have a good morning. '

I got up before dawn again and was treated to a setting moon.

Here is a hatchet job done on one of Ted Hughes Poems, 'Us He Devours', severely paraphrased by me... probably sacrilege but i quite like what i came up with from his lines, apt.
I was looking at his poetry to find something to go with my image because Fay Godwin collaborated with him in a book where she illustrated poems with her photographs and in turn inspiried other poems. i really like that idea.

The breath off the water's face, the salt airs.
Calling to the eye of the mind
For whom the mouth is a wound.
The spiral nebulae that have turned
Into howlings and gnashings.
It finds nothing, or barely enough

Interesting poem. Sounds a bit violent for such a peaceful picture, but I like the descriptive phrases putting pictures into the mind

Lovely photo and accompanying text. I'm sure Ted would approve. Haven't read his stuff in awhile. Will have to dive in again. Also thinking of Sylvia Plath.

[Francoise]

@olenadole that is the moon going down, not the sun :) but yes its pretty

[kali]

@juliedduncan yes i read about his philandering... and her pain, i havent read either poets before, but had heard the names

[kali]

@francoise you cant make it look like the moon and capture stars as well.

[Helen Jane]

Who couldn't have a good morning after seeing such a sight? I must read up a bit more about Fay Goodwin. We had a calendar of her photos many years ago and enjoyed them so much that we framed four of them and still have them on our walls.

@helenhall i enjoyed watching the doco about her on youtube

[Maggiemae]

Nice to see this beautiful moon set - almost like a sunset! Interesting also to see your choice in a poem.... always interesting!

[kali]
