National Poetry Day 8/21/17

I have a short and sweet poem to share for you on National Poetry Day, also honoring another special event on this day. It's in an "aabba" limerick format.

Today is a very special day
in an astronomical way
See the moon float by
'cross the sun in the sky
and poof! it's nighttime in day.

Another poem I wrote in honor of another aspect of this special day - it's a Monday!

Mondays are for the birds
those early rising worm-catching nerds
Mondays definitely aren't for me.
See, I'd rather be free
to catch things much more absurd.
