The moon has power over many things, the tides especially and peoples moods. This is a beautiful, mesmerizing piece, my friend.
The only thing if you don't mind, I'm not sure the period was meant for here. He stares(.) at the sky
God bless,
Steve

The moon inspires and captivates many people and it had done again to me through this piece. I love how the moon is with him through out the whole night. It goes where he goes and follows him home.

great poem about the moon like the last lines the best

And for each bit of mud we sling

Remember we want the same thing

Let's make our politics to be

That we agree to disagree

Your poem is a beautifully descriptive piece that captures the tranquillity and introspection of a night by the ocean. Phrases like "yellow remnants of sun get deceased" and "a tropical fragrance now floats through the air" are evocative and create a strong sensory experience. The consistent rhyme scheme (AABB) enhances the poem's musicality and makes it pleasant to read. Well done! - Terry

The image of the moon hovering just above the ocean is fantastic, but your flow of words is even better. They paint a picture every bit as vivid as the photo display. These words make for a magic read and they flow together every bit as good as the image we see. In one word, this is superb.

The imagery of this poem is wonderfully evocative, upheld by the picture as well. It provides the emotion of the narrator without being overly explicit as well as the actions. Very nice.

-Lovely artwork and nice presentation, Pam.
-A well written poem that tells a good story.
-It creates a peaceful mood as his walk
under the full moon brings him some peace.
-A very good, descriptive second verse.
-He begins to unwind as bad thoughts flee.
-I like the line about him hoping the
"moonlight will help him be strong."
-A very good closing verse.
-Very well done; I enjoyed reading it.
**Two small things:
He stares. at the sky, it has helped him.unwind.
[You have a period after stares and after him]

but, they'll be gone soon. [no comma after but]
