For ions, the moon has been a subject of love poetry and romantic nights, and your personification and tribute to the moon as a romantic symbol is love poems does her honor--beautiful words and presentation.

Oh yes, that moon is very full of herself. I know she's aware of all the romances she's causes with her beautiful glow. Thank you for sharing this package with us.

What a fantastic tanka, Gypsy. This was beautiful because it showed the Moon as it was meant to be. I enjoyed the play with the clouds. I liked the dual pictures of it playing peek-a-boo with the clouds. Very well done and greatly enjoyed. Blessed Be n Hugs!!!

I went back and added the susurrus meaning in my author notes. A few reviewers said they had to look it up. I do love that words. It sounds good and rolls off my tongue. In Spanish is susurros.

Thank you, big sister. I appreciate your kind review. Have a wonderful weekend.

Love,
Marival ❤️

This is lovely in so many ways. Susurrus is the perfect word here. The illustration fits wonderfully. I love the personification of the moon. The poem rolls along like the waves.

Wonderful. I am truly enjoying the change in your choice of colours, it has created an entirely different mood. A picture of a Sussurus would be fun too. Great poetry. Keep up the good work. Jacqueline
