A beautiful moon can sooth a difficult day. You did a wonderful job writing this poem and I enjoyed reading. The rhyming scheme is very good. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Glowing Moon, presented with six AABB-rhymed quatrains, allows that the evening, and its effects on us, can bring the cruel day down to something less brutal and more atypical. The serenity of the evening ambiance and the vacuum of person, moon, and sea, aid in dispersing troubles.

Ciao!
Mother Nature is a powerful healer.
She helps us relax after a stressful day,
a sunset or a full moon have the power to soothe our minds, bring us peace.
NB. Just one humble suggestion:
your poem would flow even better with less ands and verbs.

Why less verbs? I appreciate the suggestion about the ands. I am down to only one and it is not a conjunction. It is in front of the last item in the list
-
I just notice that each line has 11 syllables .. now I understand why you have many sentences with two verbs paired together.
Here a just some lines which sound better with one verb.
as drunks come outside to start sipping their beers.
As drunks come outside sipping their beers
begin to encourage his bad thoughts to flee.
Encourages his bad thoughts to flee
Soft glow from the moonlight has followed him home
Soft glow from the moonlight followed him home.
Less verbs creates a better flow but like I said , I now see you want 11 syllables per line.
Overall, I love the calming mood you were able to create. 🙂
PS: I can see you removed several Ands
great improvement ! 👌 😐

A relaxing and soothing evening under the moonlight Pam and I enjoyed the journey here, lovely rhymes and flow.
Suggestion for this line:
The bars are now closing and lights are (now) dim.
Love Dolly x

I appreciate an uplifting poem and we were just out walking and saw the moon was huge like the one in your picture. The moon is always such a good companion.

This is beautiful. I love the description of the night and the moon. I feel as if I was there with the man.
There is nothing to improve in my opinion.
Thanks for sharing.

Being alone, and with the soft moonlight is a beautiful and restorative experience and it can be both soothing and energising. I enjoyed your beautiful poem with its lovely rhyme and regular metre.

Bright full moon nights are among the best to view away from the city at night and it's great to be able to enjoy a late outdoor view of nature with someone special or alone Thank you for Sharing your moon light poem with us
