Very interesting. In your dreams you can travel to the moon and defy gravity as easily as any other limitations, but when we awake, we are back with our feet planted on earth and the let down is upon us. Nicely done.

Just how did you find that incredible illustration to your great lune? I think you lune speaks volumes and is deeper than it first seems.

Your poem is in excellent 5/3/5 syllable count for the Lune
I love the image I form in my mind of someone falling off the moon and crashing to the ground
and a most evocative final line

A very clever lune poetry contest entry! I liked this one particularly because it is a very clever entry, the artwork is also impressive, and flatters the narrative in the poem, well done, good luck, blessings, Roy.

Since I don't know a lot about science I wasn't sure about the title -- but this message I got. Looks like a winner to me and I wish you well.

Thanks for the encouragement. Hard to come up with something exciting with a few words. We'll see!
Comment from kiwisteveh
When you only have 13 syllables to work with, you might as well make them as cryptic and evocative as possible as you have done here...
My stab at interpretation would be that it's about grand dreams being thwarted by the imperatives of everyday life.
Good luck.

I can scarcely believe you have packed this much power into so few words. An amazing short piece. Thought provoking to say the least. A certain winner in my opinion. Bravo!! NG

Wow. That is a humbling thing to hear. Thank you so much. I am so thrilled to hear you say so.
Comment from Val Crisson
Well, all I can say is WOW! There is so much drama packed into this lune, that I'm almost overwhelmed. I really like the lune, but I'm not sure the title works. Just a thought.

I did change the title to Gravity. Much better, I think. Thanks for the tip. Most appreciated!!
