This Moon Is Enough

After an early supper,

There was she, hung

Bright bold and round,

The night moon;

I thought she was a supermoon,

Oh but no,

She was just the Februrary moon,

Shinning for me,

To end my birthday,

The waitress said,

There is a new ice cream shop,

On the floor below,

I said to myself,

This moon is enough.
