I love the simplicity of this poem. It's amazing how so few words can evoke such an image and sense of serenity and calm. Perfect for the contest. Good luck!

Thank you, VJ. The challenge of very short forms is to make every syllable count, and I'm very pleased that you feel I've succeeded in doing that here. I look forward to reading examples of your work.
Best, --Lane

This 2-4-2, Nocturne, has the right set up and creates a gentle evening scene which draws one's eyes and heart to the sky and water. There, the spirits are renewed. Nice.

Thank you, Bill. In my experience, nocturnes tend to be beautiful pieces of music, some longer than others, but all evocative of peace and mystery. I tried to capture that sense here. I look forward to reading examples of your work. --Lane
