Hi Boogienights,
The moon and stars put on a great show every night, if you're in an area where man-made lights don't interfere (light pollution) and there are no clouds.
I am a member of the Saint John Astronomy Club, and many planned outings get wiped out by cloud cover. Better to not plan!
A lot of people don't bother looking up. They are missing so much.
We always enjoyed laying on our beach up at the cottage (on Washdemoak Lake) and watching a meteor shower.
My favorite line,
"I catch my breath, there are no words to say"
Good Luck in the contest!
Cheers,
Kimbob

A beautiful poem. And sometimes, there are no words to fully express the beauty of such a scene - so you did well to say just that. Very good wishes for the contest.

You did an excellent job with your contest entry, Boogienights. The image pairs perfectly with your well-chosen, imagery creating words. The rhymes are perfect, too.
Thanks for sharing a beautiful poem.

This four-line rhyming poem, Night Moves, has the proper formatting and captures the awesome spectacle of the clear, starry sky and a lovers' moon.

This beautiful poem is lovely! The form reads quite smoothly and, true to the guidelines, rhymes every fourth line. I enjoyed the colorful imagery you used here, and the picture pairs perfectly!

You have a smooth flow of rhyming words that captures a clear scene of the moon and stars at night. There is a good feeling to the scene you create and the beauty of the moon is seen. Excellent little poem to capture a feel for nature and the beauty of the night sky.

Thank you. I'm fascinated by the night sky and drawn to lake Superior that I live next to. Thanks again. :)

Your metaphoric sentiment hits all the right buttons in this reader. I love the way you present the imagery and tie it to this lovely inspiring piece of art. Very well received. Good luck.
