383: blue-corn moon Dec 26, 2015

Anyone familiar with Disney's Pocahontas will have wondered what a "blue corn moon" is, as it is never explained. The phrase "blue corn moon" has no actual meaning in Native American folklore. It was invented by Stephen Schwartz just for the sound of it after being inspired by a Native American love poem with the line, "I will come to you in the moon of green corn".
