Hi Gail,
This is a good mix of words and artwork. Your words provide strong images of a serene nighttime scene. I like the metaphor and alliteration used.
Congrats on placing second in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a wonderful weekend.

LOL I enjoyed the ending of this contest entry. It was fun to read. The flow was very good. I'm sure because of the good rhyming scheme. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

I love the look of your poem's presentation with the black and white colors and the beautiful artwork. You have such lovely descriptions in your poem. This makes a nice entry for the Rhyming poem contest. Good luck.

Oh I love your writing! Beautiful images touched my thoughts. It has perfect rhyme, and poems about nature can be so calming and rich. Great job with this!

This is delightful and gives us the sense of magic of the poet's imagination. I liked how the poem is woven together with so many present active participles which give it that extra sense of something happening now and continuously.
I searched for One Light Beside the Moon in Amazon Kindle Store but could not find it.

Thanks so much for your review. You won't find my book anywhere~it was a limited run of a couple hundred copies. It was the prize in the 1999 International Poet's Society Convention and Competition in Washington, DC. I was a runner up to the Grand Prize that year with a prize of $100 & a book contract and One Light Beside the Moon was the book I had published. I think I might still have a few copies packed away somewhere but it's not for sale anywhere. I appreciate your comments. Thanks again!

Wow, congratulations on the win! I hope if the publisher permits, that you will republish it on Amazon using their KDP. I had some issues with their formatting but other than that, it's a very inexpensive way to self-publish and get to market quickly.

Thanks for the info. I'll look into it.

That was beautifully done. Magic. I could feel it. Thank you for your elegant poetry. I could almost see the faeries dancing on the moonlight beams. Made me smile. Esther

A beautifully written post my friend, in perfect rhythm, which I'm told is difficult to do, the meter is not only smooth and pleasant to read, but it's articulate and well rhymed, great entry, good luck, blessings Roy
