two silhouettes entering waters

There is so much said in these two lines. This beautiful work stimulates the senses and tempts the imagination to see the most wonderful scene. To picture two silhouettes embracing in the moon's reflection on the water is simply gorgeous.

You sent me outside to the moon - literally - tree limbs in silhouette and stars twinkling through the buttermilk. Thank you!

You paint a beautiful and romantic scene. I hear tomorrow's moon should be spectacular. I'll be sure to gaze at her and wallow in her splendor for awhile.

The irony dear poet... today I was looking up different forms of Japanese poetry in there unbelievably I found this form... Crystalline... You accomplished a wonderful poetic write! I don't think the form crystalline is a Japanese form... But it was in the poetic propers I was studying today. Anywho great to read you again... Hope you and the Young girly are doing fine.. Much love, james
