On December 3 and 4 this year, we have the Super Moon. What kind of an effect has the full moon on you or some people you know or the characters you create?

Super Cold Moon

The name of the December full moon is the Cold Moon, and, since, there is a Super Moon on December 3 and 4, the name of the December Super Moon is the Super Cold Moon. This, in itself, should inspire poets, short story authors, and novel writers to compose odes and tributes to this wonderful and spectacular natural phenomena. Is the name of a moon an omen to the coming winter? Does a Super Cold Moon sprinkle snowflakes instead of stardust or moon-dust? Why does a full moon sprinkle stardust instead of moon-dust? These are all valid questions, which neither astronomers nor astrologers want to answer.

Snowflakes and stardust,
white and bright,
as archangel wings
descend into my dreams.

The super cold moon
shines down upon mountain and valley
casting its arctic magic across
the landscape of my soul and mind.

Stardust and snowflakes,
cover the mountains of my muse
transforming their craggy heights
into a winter wonder land.

The super cold moon laughs
its frosty voice echoing
the towers of civilization
sending shivers over humanity's limbs.
