tonight...
we shared more than mere words
naked poetry in open form
organic and free
accented
in syllables shared
under these plathian stars
clenched in the calligraphy...
of the moon

A real pleasure reading this poem. Dignified deeply involved ecstacy of wholesome sharing. Congrats.

I love moon poetry. And this is one of the best I've seen. Coupled with my deep liking for small poems, I think this is well-deserving of the gold in this contest. Lovley presentation, too.
the moon
came rolling in
bare naked
racing through a forest of metaphor
to meet me...best wishes and many blessings

I am intrigued by the phrase "naked poetry" but it is effective on several levels. Good luck in this contest. Peace, Liz

How beautiful. You are such a romantic at times. So lovely I have lost my words somewhere in the calligraphy.

This holds so much depth; while remaining true to the prompt. Your writing style is very different from a lot I've read; and the fact that you are able to produce something this creative and wonderful in such a short time is amazing! I especially love "calligraphy of the moon", so beautiful
