Beneath a Jadeite Moon

My poetic senses are fertile tonight
The moon resembles jadeite, in hues of pink
Without hesitation, my pen soars in flight
scribing quixotic sonnets in ebon ink
Rhymed verses of amorous trysts in starlight
and two hearts pulsing as one in rhythmic sync
Images I conceive through an artist's eyes
Romance should never be shadowed in disguise

Dear Jenna, beneath a pink hued moon, your romantic pen sparkles with the captured magic of starlight, and “quixotic sonnets” (love that, btw) tremble with the pulse of your heart’s imagination. A stunning poem! Congratulations for your excellent win in Milt’s contest. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Beautiful poetry Jenna, flows like silk across silk, your romantic poems are delicate yet extremely powerful, how you interweave these opposing contrasts is quite magical, and a delight to read, all the best for contest, cheers David

there are poets who try and write about romance, but they have no shades or shadows rendered in the aura of candlelight, then there are poets like you whose heart and soul drip upon the page in the wondrous wonder of tender emotion...Frederic
