“Upside-down Moon-face” by Celia Berrell

Upside-down Moon-face

 

Serenitatis and

Imbrium Mares

are names for the eyes

of the “Man” up there.

 

Asteroid impacts

made volcanoes blow,

so Moon’s molten lava

began to flow.

 

These large lunar seas

then cooled, hard and black,

so the full-Moon has patches

for eyes that stare back.

 

Cognitum and

Nubrium Mares

make his grin.

But he’s upside down

when WE look at him!
