The full moon's morning greeting. Foto Friday challenge





The theme this week for Rebecca's photo challenge was : Beauty in the Ugly.

I didn't see any "ugly" when I stepped out of my house early one morning. How about a photo whose theme is "Beauty in the Eerie".
 5:30 a.m., Wednesday, May 18, 2011.

What a cool summer morning....but a Halloween sight.
Setting the mood  for the mystery of this day.


My favorite poet says it so well.:

The Freedom of the Moon
by Robert Frost


I've tried the new moon tilted in the air

Above a hazy tree-and-farmhouse cluster

As you might try a jewel in your hair.

I've tried it fine with little breadth of luster,

Alone, or in one ornament combining

With one first-water start almost shining.



I put it shining anywhere I please.

By walking slowly on some evening later,

I've pulled it from a crate of crooked trees,

And brought it over glossy water, greater,

And dropped it in, and seen the image wallow,

The color run, all sorts of wonder follow.
