In the Moonlight

We are in the moonlight
holding each other tightly
dreamily we sit
awaiting dawn

softly we stare
up into the silky sky
stars above dancing in our eyes
sleepily we watch

darkness yet not
just lightly lit by moon
sweet silence around
quiet breeze slips by

we are together
alone outside
whispers of sweet lullaby from the crickets
gazing in to each others soul

soon the dawn will be upon us
but for now
all we need is each other
and the moonlight

    This is really good. There is alot of emotion in it. I guess thats what sucked me into reading more of it.
    soon the dawn will be upon us
    but for now
    all we need is each other
    and the moonlight
    I love that part, I love the way it paints a picture in my mind. well if you could comment on never more, it would put a big smile of my face if you don't want to thats fine. Sweet poem.

    Excellent

    This is very lovely. I do agree with GenXPsalmist though. If you went to a publisher they would love it too but would get you to much as GenXPsalmist suggested. Excellent work!

    The imagery is good, and the whole thing feels very calm and peaceful. I assume (based on your AC and the border) this is about you and your dog? Anyway, the only big suggestion I have for improvement is that you take out a few redundancys. For example, in stanza four, "We are together" is just restating the obvious. Also, you used sweet twice, maybe try a different adjictive in one of those places? "darkness yet not" ought to have a comma after it, for clarity, because it seems to continue to the next line, but doesn't. Also, in stanza four, "in to" should be "into."
    Anyway, hope you don't mind me just trying to help. Feel free to tell me why I'm wrong, just don't try to tell me I was rude about it. Keep up the good work.

    You done a great job on this piece. I loved all of te images that you used in it. My favorite part was
    "we are together
    alone outside
    whispers of sweet lullaby from the crickets
    gazing in to each others soul"

    Keep up the excellent work!

    nice poem. Good imagry. I think the best bit is:

    softly we stare
    up into the silky sky
    stars above dancing in our eyes
    sleepily we watch

    keep writting

    This a a beautiful piece and the imagery is amazing. The flow of the piece is perfect. It is easy to read and it is so emotive that it demands to read and re-read. Its time-less. The emotion expressed never dies. I really love these lines :
    "stars above dancing in our eyes
    sleepily we watch"

    Thank you for entering the contest.

    I love this part.
    darkness yet not
    just lightly lit by moon
    sweet silence around
    quiet breeze slips by

    It gives me a beautiful image. Thank you again for entering the contest.
    Peace
