Just Like That

i close my eyes
and in my dream
the moon is high
the breeze perfumed
and you are by my side

This is simple, to the point and quite lovely... poetry in its purist form. This is really good. Congrats as well Line.

Line, I love your "bite-size" poetry. Your chosen illustration (which I didn't see until the contest was finalized) is the icing on the cake. Congratulations on your win on Mile 14 of my 2022 Poetry Marathon Contest. We're over halfway to the finish line! Keep your running shoes on, because Mile 15 has already started.
