She Learned It From The Moon

By Gerry Grubbs

PROMPT — Joy is ...

I am humming

An old song

She used to sing

Saying she learned it

From her father

Who learned it from

His mother who it is said

Learned it from the moon


 

Gerry Grubbs has had numerous poems appear in Poet Lore, Laughing Dog as well as the Journal Of Expressive Writing. His most recent book, Learning A New Way To Listen, was released in 2023 by Dos Madres Press. Gerry writes from Cincinnati, Ohio.
