If this poem was listed around Easter time, then "He will rise above darkness."

Regardless your Kelly Lune has deep meaning in only a few words.

P.S. I have seen some Lune poems as left aligned - akin to a crescent moon.

Lee,
This poem reminds me of my life struggles and my reaching for the stars to rise above the ashes. (Boredom, mostly).
The word 'all' is a great choice.
Darkness to me is depression, it could mean something else to another.
You give hope in this short eloquent poem.
Good luck.
Blessings,
Cindy

Hello Kahpot, very good, very cute. I especially liked:

I will rise
above the darkness
(Good word play)

Fantastic photo. Good sensory appeal. Well done. Keep the blue waters flowing. LateBloomer

This is a wonderful lune poem that makes the reader feel good. In few words, you offer encouragement. "Reaching for the moon" is a perfect opening line to draw the reader into your words. I am very fond of poetry about the moon, I never tire of reading beautiful verse about the moon. Excellent lune form.

-Very nice image and presentation, kahpot.
-A well written lune with a good topic
and effective nature imagery.
-The middle line is strong and
adds to the theme of the poem,
and is part of a positive message
about rising out of the darkness.
-Good luck in the contest.

This gives you an ascending feeling of a fantastic autumn night. Your words are meaningful and telling of you raising above whatever darkness comes your way--wonderfully done! Best JohnC.

This is a lovely poem! I find these words hopeful, filled with meaning,
uplifting, descriptive and creative. I found these words motivating and
positive as many are going through difficult times. The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome and compliments these words. Have a great day!...Maria

Excellent entry for the Japanese poetry club. Good syllables count and connection between lines.

Beautiful presentation... I love the black background.
