I could sit and watch a moon over the water any time. That goes along with watching it snow, rain or even a fire. I could watch all of those things for hours and not even care about time. Great job friend

There are many different serious aspect in the relationship with the moon and earth, Some have yet to be discovered by scientists. Good luck in your contest.

This is an enjoyable 5-7-5 giving a little smile with the clever pun in the third line, "makes funny phases." Presentation is striking and interesting.

Seventeen syllables that enhance the
beautiful art work that you have chosen
and make one appreciate the beauty of moonlight
as it reflects on the water.
Well done and good luck

You described the moonlight, particularly it's shine upon the sea perfectly. I liked the imagery you used in your piece, I thought that your writing was well written and flowed well. I couldn't fault it. Good luck in the contest...Jacob

Hello author what you said in 17 syllables is so colorful with the streams of funny phases is an very original way of describing the motion
of the streams of moonlight reflecting on blue waters

This fits the syllabic reqyirements of the contest. But I am at a loss to understand the third line. Is this supposed to be a satori, making us take a look at the previous from a different angle, or are we mere to indulge in the delights of the alliteration?

    thank you Angel :) This is a haikuish 5/7/5.... the 3rd line is a satori line. I used phases, as in the moon's phases, and used it as faces... like making funny faces... just something fun to think about.
