Jenna Logan Poet Free verse

Luna's Pale Light

Light shimmered on the lake at moonrise,
with a breathtaking view that glimmered.
Beneath the glow of Luna's pale luminance,
the night was calm on the banks of the firth
except for the cooing of a lonesome dove,
who thirsted like me, yearning to be loved.

Tom Cunningham September 11, 2022 at 1:20 AM You pack a lot of imagery in a few lines Jenna, something magical about the pale moonlight that casts its eerie glow over the sea and landscape. Tom Jenna Logan September 11, 2022 at 5:04 AM Pale moonlight, harvest moon, it's all mysteriously beautiful to me, too. Thank you, Tom.

L Milton Hankins September 10, 2022 at 9:40 PM Exceptionally well-written, Jenna. Your imagery is riveting. I thought the ending was magical... "a lonesome dove, who thirsted like me, yearning to be loved." I see this as a winner! Jenna Logan September 11, 2022 at 5:03 AM I'm so very glad you found this one had a 'magical' ending, Milt. Thank you very much.
