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.

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

Pale moonlight, harvest moon, it's all mysteriously beautiful to me, too. Thank you, Tom.

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!
