Gregory Richard Barden Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Musette Moon

breath, gone
you drip moonlight
blue, wan ...

thru shades -
skin and tresses
soft braids

cede sleep
limbs and percale
swim ... deep.

David Mohn April 16, 2020 at 9:23 PM This is wonderful Greg…I was wondering if someone could actually create a mood in this restrictive form…you certainly did.

Andrea Dietrich April 16, 2020 at 5:16 PM I think yours might be one of the few that truly read like POETRY in this restrictive form. So beautiful this is, Greg. Way to go on your well deserved first placement.

John Watt April 16, 2020 at 10:23 AM Greg, this is just awesome, and deserves the #1 placement you received. I think you should do more in this form! Your excellent vocabulary lends itself well to the 'less is more' style. Well done!

Beata Agustin April 16, 2020 at 6:18 AM Wow! Congrats. Delighted am I with these three lines: "cede sleep limbs and percale swim ... deep." God bless you.
