Succinct. Although I see you're recognized, does being recognized provide you the literary license to write this piece, which, quite honestly, I don't understand. However, you didn't get where you are without most reviewers finding your work excellent. But, alas, not me ... sorry.

You certainly should win the contest. I read this poem as the seasons of life. When the moon sets on life, it is the senile moon, the melting sky made me think of getting older and slowing down, night sings lullaby, is for those final day. You truly have a good style for poetry. Thanks for sharing.

I never thought of the moon as senile, but why not. I love the descriptions you used in this poem, 'melting in the sky' leaves us with a wonderful image. Good job.

Too short!
I'd like you to extend it, to work your imagination harder
'senile' , melting'..... lullaby (so close yo bye bye or good bye.
You realy must swim int o your subconscious, and continue swimming down stream.

You have written a lovely 5-7-5 formatted poem that highlights the moon. Very poetic description of "melting in the sky". Quite visual. The last line about a lullaby carries the serenity to another level. Nice,y done! Good luck in the contest.

A great poem. I love poems that describe nature's day and night. You said in 17 words what many of us try to say in countless words. Night, singing a lullaby. is supporting the old "guy", the senile moon as it melts away. It is kind of sad! Sonjalee
PS-after thinking about it , I think this deserves a 6*.

More proof the moon's made of cheese, not limburger. Personification of the moon shows me an older person, contented and in harmony with their surroundings. Kenny
