A full moon hangs like a lantern in the sky,
Stars twinkle silently like small festive lights.
The air is chilly with a mild breezy breath,
a perfect setting for mid autumn’s fest.
Children decorate trees with little coloured
candles, light lanterns and gather together
to join the procession with family and neighbours
in celebration of the mid autumn moon.
Mothers split pomeloes, cut mooncakes,
and brew tea as they wait for the festivities
to cool down and the children, big and small
return to eat the delicacies offered to the moon.
The air is chilly and its mild breezy breath
pokes at fallen leaves to jiggle on the ground.
As the moon light the sky, the ground reminisce
the separating distance this mid autumn night.
