Greetings friends, we had quite an exciting time picking our May poems last Thursday - the submission pile was strong and varied.

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

Oneness
Under the flowering branch I sit,
And in the sky, my brother moon,
A distant yellow-silver orb
holds court upon the night.
Through each moment petals open
greeting their cousin stars,
As all the midnight sky expands,
with fire-flies in flight.
Beyond, beneath, around, within
existence breathes its welcome,
And I feel as one with all that is
Absorbed into the light.
As the fragile blossoms stay
Until their time to fade
Into eternity which bids
adieu to life’s delight,
I will continue sitting here
Brother to the moon,
Cousin to the stars,
Bathed in all the life there is
holding court upon the night.
