Rod,
Congrats on your win in the Nanni poem contest. Your short but creative poem is an exceptional example of a Nanni. The syllable count is perfect and the imagery infused in the 5 lines of the poem is brilliant. This poem however is deserving of 10 stars+
All the best,
Eugene

FYI, naani as most often about human relationships. Sorry, I don't like giving fours, but there are so many flawed naani I felt the need. Fortunately, yours doesn't rhyme as so many in this contest do.

There is nothing that I have read that says a Naani is "most often" about human relationships. The prompt said it could be about anything and so did most poetry sites on Google.

Obviously, you don't write naani often. The prompt was pathetic. Nonetheless, good luck.

Well, this site as to look into what short form rules are allowed. The second place winner in this contest was a naani.

This was a beautiful poem. I like the "warm butter melting" line. Looking until day departed was a lovely way to spend time. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Comment from Julie Helms
A very original metaphor--the sun melting over the water. It's vivid and really engages the senses ...the warmth, the color, all really effective in setting your scene!
