Everywhere - Everyone
I am from everywhere and no one
From ashes to frosted winds
I am from surfing and the scary cliffs
From windmills, tulips and big round cheeses
I am from pastures and highways
From the apple to the blue ridge mountains
I am from the lack of air to the breath of life
From foreign lands and twisted tongues
From candles burning and bread just baked
I am from nowhere and everyone

About Us
- Full Moon Poetry Society
- There was a time when poets would gather together to write, read and comment on each other’s poetry. These gatherings would take place during a full moon and would often include a favorite beverage, something to eat and a reflective body of water. It sounded like fun to me. No one has a lot of time these days to hang out together, so I thought maybe we could have our own electronic society of poets. In the light of day I thought better of it; who would be interested? In a weak moment I mentioned my idea to Deanna. Her eyes lit up and resembled two big harvest moons. I had a companion in poetry and the Full Moon Poetry Society was born. -Brian Howlett
