Philip LarkinAbout
Philip Larkin featured the poem “The moon is full tonight” in his 1945 collection of poetry The North Ship as the third poem.
“The moon is full tonight” Annotated
The moon is full tonight,
And hurts the eyes,
It is so definite and bright.
What if it has drawn up
All quietness and certitude of worth
Wherewith to fill its cup,
Or mint a second moon, a paradise? -
For they are gone from earth
