Wow! It even makes sense as a Poem! Good rhymes, good images, a consistent sweet emotion running through, metrically consistent--- I'm impressed that you could make something tasty out of what I consider a somewhat trivial form. You have made something special out of nothing much. Bravo! Good Job! A+

    Glad you enjoyed this piece. Trying to capture what August could be like...without Covid.

I enjoyed reading your well-written poem and I really like your visual art. It enhanced your message. I liked how you wrote about all the activities happening on a hot August night, the moon, dancing, music, birds. It is very descriptive. I like it very much. Best wishes!

This poem captures the spirit of the summer night, especially as it's coupled with your art, which generates the idea of heat. I like your first stanza best -- it gtabbed my attention

Good evening Mystery writer.

I have never delved into the workings of this particular style of poetry, but having now done so in order to ascertain what's required, I see that you have technicalities correct.

You have set a lovely scene for potential love that's surrounded by night birds... Interesting :)

Fav line is: Let's dance in rhythm with notes that excite


I wish you luck in this competition.

Kindest regards


Trimple

Kudos to you for taking on this type of rhyme, and a great subject! It reminds me of New Orleans. The words flowed beautifully and I could feel the air of summer!

Your poem is very lovely, romantic, descriptive, and skillfully composed.
The carefree tone and scenario painted are uplifting and enthusiastic, and the artwork is perfect.
