What a picture - what a poem. They fit hand in glove. I like the feeling of your poem. It's soothing. Beautiful to see the moon over the ocean. A rare sight actually as often the clouds come in at that time. We see a full moon over the lake where we camp. it is a peaceful embrace.

I love writing about the moon and how peaceful it can be to sit and gaze at it. Thanks so much Gail.

Comment from Mark Valentine
Love it - it really sets a mood. There's something about both the moon and the ocean that has the effect of making us feel small - in a good way - it makes our worries seem small - the notion of them embracing us highlights that feeling - and that it all happens at dusk just adds to the quiet and still vibe of the poem. It really makes the most of its fifteen syllables.

Comment from Janice Canerdy
You have made excellent use of all your syllables--and personification--in this lovely poem. I relied on the picture to figure out the part about the
embrace.

Cool photo and perfectly golden, full moon set within the tree. A fine entry for the fifteen syllable poetry contest. You know astronomy is my hobby, right? That is . . . besides writing.
Ready for the contest win.
Sending you my best today as well,

Comment from June Sargent
A lot simpler, but just as beautiful as a redoubled rondeau! I love the artwork, too! Should be a winner in the contest. Peaceful embrace...that's what we need at the end of a hectic day...

At the dusk of the evening, everything appears quiet, calm is the sea, and pale is the moon, tranquility is there around, and peaceful embrace is enjoyable in the surrounding; well said, well done. Liked and enjoyed the read. Write-Inspire --DR ALCREATOR

Hello Sugarray. First I will comment on the picture. It is a remarkable image. Now I will comment on your 15 syllable poem. I could visualize that picture without seeing it because of the power of your words. Excellent. Robert
