#Anserine #poetry

named full moons
so the folk lore tells us
from old almanacks

from old almanacks
farmers' wisdom and customs
wise old sayings

wise old sayings
from Native Americans
give us names for moons

give us names for moons
when they are full, like wolf, snow,
worm, pink, and flower

worm, pink, and flower,
strawberry, buck, and sturgeon,
corn, and hunter's moons

corn, and hunter's moons,
beaver and cold for each month
of every year

of every year
we celebrate the power
of the full moons

of the full moons
the gravitational pull
of time, and tide

of time and tide
sea-faring, and fishing tales
from old almanacks

from old almanacks
so the folk lore tells us
named full moons
