Five days ago, I snuck outside to capture a shot of the moon.
The moon was the closest it would be to earth this year.
This is called the “perigee moon” or “supermoon.”

Since it was closer, it was brighter.
If I sit closer to the computer, will I become brighter?
Let’s give it a try. Right now, I’m just an inch away from the monitor.
Do I sound smarter?
Maybe a poem will impress:
Moonshine drapes my house
I photograph the sight.
A car nearly hits me.
Yep, I know the poem doesn’t rhyme…because a car nearly hit me!
The scare marred my ability to write an awesome poem.
In conclusion, I have two questions for you:
(1) Did you see the perigee moon?
and/or
(2) Would you like to improve my poem?
