jaded831 - this is an interesting 5-7-5 moon entry. You have all the syllables in check and written a piece that has quite a sinister feel with the end line - very effective. The picture is excellent, even going as far as to say it looks like an eye, black and watching. Great job and best of luck in the competition. ~DD

The picture goes nicely with your eclipse poem. The syllable count is correct. Good job putting so much into so few words! What I don't get is the last line. Why do warm hearts turn cold? Beautiful poem!

    When the sun is blocked I get a sinking, cold feeling. When the sun is out my mood is happier. So for me it turns my heart cold, that is how I feel. Thank you for your review.

This is my first time reviewing a 5-7-5 poem, I think you did really well. I'm sure it's a challenge to be descriptive with the very limited syllable requirements. I think
moon was pretty good. Good luck jaded831 in the contest. All the best Scott

This speaks by degrees warm hearts turn cold, darkness up in the sky reigns as per process the moon blocks the sun from shining, changes up and down everywhere; I liked.

This was a very timely write about the eclipse, mystery author.
Wondering if the " turning warm hearts cold" line has anything to do with all the predictions of gloom and doom surrounding this particular eclipse?
Time will tell.
Great job and good luck in the contest.

Appropriate for today for sure, but sad that it would change a warm heart. I hope no weirdos did anything LUNEY during this exciting occasion. I did enjoy your perspective...captured in so few words.

Interesting analogy indeed. It is just hours away, this eclipse of the sun, or the heart! We are experiencing heavy cloud cover where I live unfortunately.
The poem is good. Nothing to suggest in the way of improvements. Best of luck in the contest and lots of votes!

"Darkness reigns as the
moon blocks the sun from shining,
turning warm hearts cold"
this is an interesting piece of poetry dear jaded831! especially that the sunless sky causes physical changes in the body. not a first thought but originally written.
thank you for sharing!
blessings and a big squeeze!
