Silent Narrative Poem

La Luna

Row by row the family went

In the middle of the sea with intent

What grandpa does you must repeat

What father does you must receive

Up the ladder the journey awaits

Up so high you begin to fly

To the moon in the sky

A shooting star that had flown by

A bright twinkle upon first sight

Makes the moon a bright starry light

On the moon you must clean

All the stars that are bright and gleam

To follow father or to follow grandpa

You don’t know who should take the lead

A big problem lands in their way

Father and grandpa can’t solve the problem so you do it your way

You fix the problem and find your identity

With a rake you figure you are the one you have to be
