Hi Gypsy, I think that you wore that starry sequin gown for your secret lover--Mr. Moon or, perhaps, the man on the moon.

Your poem reads and flows well and has good imagery within.

Of special note:
the moon comes along
and I wear a starry sequin gown
ready to land by your sleepy head

(I'm sure that someone will be waiting for you in the awesome gown.)

A fun poem that made me smile. Well done; well told. A pleasure to read. Beautiful presentation. Xo. Margaret

This work has reached the exceptional level

Okay, I would give you six stars just for the picture, but you matched her magical beauty with your equally exquisite flowing words.

I could expect no less from a Magical Unicorn as this could not possibly be created by a mere human mind.

Should I have Tom just give you all of my sixes on Sunday and cut out the middle man?

Probably should have sixed the cheating one as it equally elicited raw emotion, having been the one cheated on. I had that moment sitting against the wall in a fog. Didn't review it cause it felt icky due to my history. Still a great pair of works.

You are something special, my friend.

This Japanese poetic form is new to me, and I like how you have used it to describe a nymph or fairy who visits during the night. Especially noteworthy is your description of her gown.
