Question

paraphrase on moon wind

Answer 1

There is no wind on the moon at all 

Yet things get blown about. 

In utter utter stillness 
Your candle shivers out. 
In utter stillness 
A giant marquee 
Booms and flounders past you
Like a swan at sea. 
In utter utter stillness 
While you stand in the street 
A squall of hen and cabbages 
Knocks you off your feet. 
In utter utter stillness 
While you stand agog 
A tearing twisting sheet of pond 
Clouts you with a frog. 
A camp of caravans suddenly 
Squawks and takes off. 
A ferris wheel bounds along the skyline 
Like a somersaulting giraffe. 
Roots and foundations, nails and screws, 
Nothing can hold fast, 
Nothing can resist the moon's
Dead-still blast.

Answer 2

There is no wind on the moon at all 

Yet things get blown about. 

In utter utter stillness 

Your candle shivers out. 

In utter stillness 

A giant marquee 

Booms and flounders past you

Like a swan at sea. 

In utter utter stillness 

While you stand in the street 

A squall of hen and cabbages 

Knocks you off your feet. 

In utter utter stillness 

While you stand agog 

A tearing twisting sheet of pond 

Clouts you with a frog. 

A camp of caravans suddenly 

Squawks and takes off. 

A ferris wheel bounds along the skyline 

Like a somersaulting giraffe. 

Roots and foundations, nails and screws, 

Nothing can hold fast, 

Nothing can resist the moon's

Dead-still blast.
