Sit Tight and Laugh With the Moon

Sit tight
        tight
                tight
Be pride
        pride
                pride
Laugh hysterically
        uncontrollably
                frenetically
But not too much
because such
        such
                such
Enthusiasm
isn’t honored much
        much
                much
Out there in the wild
be mild
        mild
                mild
When it’s needed
on the streets
        seats
                sheets
Late at night
when you’re out of sight
you can laugh
        laugh
                laugh
With the moon.

    I like the poem Alex. It is kind of a fun and happy rhythm. The choice of words is light and does not burden the mind to think a lat and is kind of entertaining.
    Thanks for sharing!!

    1. Thank you very much! Fun and happy actually have been my intention on this tiny piece. Sometimes, poetry should be light to enjoy, too, besides the dark and heavy ones. Take care and enjoy your day, Seema 🙂
