Moonlight or Sunrise contest Sponsored by Ink Empress
Luna sings sweetly when the sun goes down… …and the stars light up against the black velvet of the empyrean. Others view Luna with a judgemental frown… …they approve only sunlight songs in hues of yellow and tangerine. When will we see with our hearts and hear music with the love we hold there? When will the ethereal light of the moon on meadows here be thought as beautiful as that glaring sun of theirs? The moonlight is gentle, it sings to us of lovers and lakes. Of both beneath those graceful beams, in a boat being rocked to sleep. It softens her features, giving much more than it takes. Luna in the arms of another in the moonlight on meadows and lakes… …Over what eternity keeps.

This is quite pretty with lush language. Inky's a huge moon lover so this should go over well with her

Dear Crystol, the beauty of moonlight glows in the magic of your imagery. I enjoyed the contrast between sunlight and moonlight. I especially enjoyed "The moonlight is gentle, / it sings to us of lovers and lakes" indeed it does, and your lovely verse sings to me of "moonlight on meadows". I am enraptured by moonlight too. Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan
