this full moon
smells like cotton
candy caramel corn sway,
and the way
the top of the ferris wheel
tilted us toward
heaven.

Oh! I just love this! It took me forever to write mine and you have presented this wonderful package simply and amazingly to us. Great write.
I love the smell of it and way it tilts us toward heaven ~ Short but powerful writing De ~
Happy New Year to you and your family ~
I love everything about this… A perfect little snapshot.
Mmmmm … this is luscious!
Almost haiku like in its brevity but you packed so many scents, and sights, into this. The fair is filled with them! Love the tilting toward heaven too…
Oh, and great title!
Oh the smell of moon.. Love that, and then the Ferris wheel of happiness – a perfect moment captured.
Love the idea of the full moon having the scent of cotton candy! Moment of bliss captured well 🙂
Beautifully executed.
Lots of love,
Sanaa
This is my favourite of today’s offerings, I think – short, perfect capture of the moment, the senses (not just smell).
Yes, this is the smell I imagine the moon would have as well! Smiles.
thanks for the whirl and tilt toward heaven
Ferris wheels
sing songs
of high..
smelling
fear is
all i taste..
cotton candy
floats higher safer..:)
The carnival backdrop is so alive with olfactory possibilities, yes you packed this tiny piece like a master sausage maker, stretching the skin with spicy goodness; but still, naughty me, I wonder how the moon would smell from behind an outhouse or a sewage plant; smile.
This little verse smells wonderful!
Delightful!
“Top of the ferris wheel tilted us towards heaven”…..yes! Been there!! Thank you for a great reminder.
