Moonglade isn't a word I know - though I love seeing it.
Hi Sandra - when it's been clear ... our moon has had some wonderful settings in the sky ... while I'm afraid Nathaniel Hawthorne has escaped me ... I've had a quick glance: interesting family ... cheers Hilary
I wonder what the Whig party would be like today - Independents?
Never heard "moonglade."
And I echo Alex about the Whigs, and other defunct political parties--what would they have been like today?
And that inspired the Scarlet Letter? Wow!
Which just goes to show that getting fired isn't always a bad thing. Moonglade -- such a lovely word!
Hi EC, It wasn't one I'd heard of either, but I love the imagery it evokes.
Hils, Our moon has had some wonderful settings indeed.
Cheers,
Alex, Could well be.I admit to getting confused about the former parties. Sigh.
Good question, Jamie.
Jeanie, In this instance it worked out, didn't it?:) I agree whole heartedly on Moonglade:)
I don't have a word for moonglade, but I imagine an open area in a forest flooded with moonlight.
Interesting word and fact
No lo sabía, te mando un beso.
I’d love to see a moon glade right now. I have tht 60s song by Van Morrison go through my head right now.
Thanks, Christine. Glad you think so.
Hi Andrew, Close. Very close. It's the reflection of the moon on water, though to my mind, your definition makes more sense.
JP, Sending you a hug.
Birgit, LOL on the moon earworm:)
