For this contest, I would like topics on my second favorite thing, The moon. So that is your prompt. Run with it. The moon is a light source, a source of romanticism, of beauty, of love. What can you come up with? DAZZLE ME!
Rules: (as usual, if your smart, you really wont need to read them)
1.) Make sure your entry includes the moon, I dont want a vauge analogy.
2.) No Chat speak, No TyPiNg LiKe ThIs. Its annoying, and an automatic DQ.
3.) (and this is a rule, but its a good thing to do) Check out some of the participants in the contest, You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. Generally if you comment on someones poetry, they comment on yours.
4.) Now this is a must, HAVE FUN!
5.) Now, I love erotica, etc. But please, Label it appropriatly!

The moon is one of my favorite things too. Too bad you are not allowing prewrites. I have a couple of poems that you may have liked.
