This is a poem I wrote from the perspective of someone looking up at the moon as if it is real. The first stanza focuses on the isolation of the moon and how the narrator almost feels sorry for it. The second focuses on man's interaction with the moon and paints his association with it in a selfish light. The third stanza however elevates the moon's status to almost god-like and I highlight how the moon will be there long after the greats of this world are gone.
I think this poem is suited for anyone of anyone age, although I do think that it would make a great poem for young children.

A Collection of Poems
These poems are just some of the little pieces that make up my life. Whenever I get inspired by someone or something, I write a little story about it in the form of a poem. In a way, it helps me express what I have in my mind in a very vague way. I'm not that kind of a direct person, but there are things that are sometimes, better to kept secret. Here, these poems are what I wanted to say to my friends, to other important people, to people in general, to the world around me, to life and each detail it possesses. Each poem has a central theme, and around that revolves a certain story that I want to impart, something too delicate to be expressed directly, something too complicated. Here, I want to share who I am. That's ... probably all ... that I need to say.Complete

RHYMES OF MELANCHOLY
POEM COMPILATION *** Under the gaze of the moonlight, The stars asked three people that night, "What will you give in exchange for my light?" The doctor answered, "I'll give you my sight, So you will see the world in someone's eyes." The teacher said, "I'll offer you my wisdom, So you will build knowledge in your kingdom." The last one who talk only seldom, Stared at the stars with a lonely smile, "I am a poet, and I will not lie, I cannot give you a sight, nor I can be wise, I have nothing in my life but sadness only, So I offer you the RHYMES OF MY MELANCHOLY."

As Time Slows Around Us [Poetry]
