Analysis of The Man In The Moon (Mythical free verse)



How lonely is
The
Man in the moon
Glancing down
While
Lovers croon
Listening
To
Loves endless
Tune
Sitting solely
On
His dune
World of lover's
Gooseberry
Shines down light
Eternally
For romantics all
To see
Holding fast his
Destiny
Every night
He hasn't failed
Casting
Moonlight bright or
Veiled
I sometimes wonder
Why
He's blue
And
Glows a little dim
Perhaps
He's looking for a star
To shine
It's light on him.
