Ciao !
This is right up my alley.
I'm gloomy by nature and I love the sad vibe you captured in your poem.
The artwork is beautiful..
the black background and the red letters makes this entry stunning.

Dear Gypsy,
I enjoyed your Lune-style poem. I have been reviewing a lot of them so I guess I will vote in this contest. I like this style an awful lot. Great job as always. You know you're the Queen. Best wishes in the contest.
Blessings,
Darlene

Good luck wishes in the Lune Poetry Contest, Gypsy. What a beautiful picture of the tree under the full moon. The words you chose were so appropriate, they spoke of what the tree yearned from the moon. Well done, greatly enjoyed. Blessed be, hugs!

Welcome Gypsy
Comment from Mark D. R.
Gypsy,
Regardless of the Lune format, your verse provides a vivid image, especially with your selected illustration.
'Freedom to wander' is a terrific phrase, given the artwork. Your color choices also add to the overall effect.

Those of us stuck in one place imagine that others enjoy great freedom. We may misunderstand the situation completely, but cannot let go of this idea we find so attractive.

Comment from lyenochka
Alas, the rooted tree can't wander like the moon. How appropriate to use that as a theme for your lune! I liked the information you added, too. Can you also weigh in about the formatting? When I first tried a lune, I was told to format to the left so that it could look like a crescent moon and not center it. So I was sharing that but now, I'm not sure if that's true.

I had it that way but Jan told me it was distracting. What do you think?

You're the expert on short forms, Gypsy. Do it the way you want. I think it was KiwiSteve who told me to flush it to the left for the crescent moon effect but I couldn't find anything online that says that.

Yes, I read that too. I really lune poems. We are trying writing them in our Japanese club. I read the definition and rules online. You can write 3/5/3 words or 3/5/3 syllables...I like that. There's a lune contest going on now but the rules for that Contest callas for 5/3/5 syllables, Wich is wrong.
Comment from Jasmine Girl
What a good point and suggestion for a lonely tree. I could relate to it. I would wander and travel whether I'm alone or not.
I like the presentation, too.
Well done.

Your contest entry reads well, Gypsy. Great job with the syllable count per line. I like the image you paired with your well chosen words. You make a good statement with the POV of the tree in relation to the moon.
I wonder why you have offset the 2nd line as shown. To me, it's a bit distracting, but I know your choice.
Best wishes in the contest.
Respectfully, Jan

Thank you very much for your time and effort. I appreciate your kind review and feedback. I changed the allignment ... I was trying to make it look like a crescent moon because of the line imagery...but I don't want to distract my readers, I changed it to center allignment.

I believe the crescent shape will happen if you use the left alignment of all three lines. 😊

I like your poem- shows imagination- lone tree seems to be seeking freedom from the roots tying it to the ground. Nice job good , luck in the contest
