Happy Golden Moon Tableau

Moon shines—white jade plate.
Swish as broad sky mime.
Two palm tree twigs spate.
Toads and moon rays chime.
Where flickers share gate
Poised shore smells sublime.

Sam Kauffman August 29, 2023 at 11:10 AM Lasaad, your eloquent words equated the moon to a precious white jade "plate." This tableau is definitely written with your signature, stellar ability to make words sing - to make words set a scene that I am drawn into as if by enchantment! Congratulations on your win! Really enjoyed this poem. Blessings to you dear friend!
