Autumn Moon

melon moon rising
akin to the rising sun— 
In contrast to lapis sky
enchanting lovers
strolling hand in hand on shore.
Moonlight coruscates on sea.

You painted such a delightful scene my friend! Brings back my memory of a stroll taken on a beach in Boracay, with my then fiancee, now my wife. A 7 and a fav....
