gorgeous pairing of photo and poem, which is in good 5/3/5 syllable count for the Lune
you create a lovely scene and I really like the imagery of the third line :-) Brooke

    Thank you Brooke for your wonderful feedback :D
    The photograph is from a recent break in the Scottish Borders - it's a place called Coldingham Bay. It's stunning!
    Kindest regards, Debra :)

Hi Debra

We have these colourful little beach huts in one place (that I know) in Australia. They always look so amazing with their bright colours holding fast in a burst of sunlight. Your Lune has moved the reader in a different direction and have presented a picturesque image in the reflection of low tide. A fusion of image and poem. Great allit. in "shallow/sea". I really like the joy expressed by "~watercolour tide~". Very creative. Well done. Warm Hugs - Lovi xoxo

My experience with poetry is minimal. But, I am developing a taste for it. And a Lune Poem is interesting. To me, a 'Lune' has to do with contemplation. I certainly liked yours. Best wishes.

I love the view of the huts reflected on the ocean front. It is symbols of peaceful life. The water is where life begins. Life is carefree and relaxed by the ocean. Great work.

So descriptive. I'd be able to see this image even without the photo. Very nicely done, looks like a contest winner to me.

This nice haiku resembles a well done watercolour. You suggested very poetically the reflection of beach huts in the calm sea. It should do very well in the contest.

Nicely written lune which describes the picture or vice versa.

The reflection reminds me of an impressionist painting and that works well the the art reference in the last line.

Good luck in the contest.

Keep writing.

Ah ha, very nice! Fantastic imagery to go along with a clever and perfectly constructed lune. Witty play on words, with "watercolour tide".

This one should be a very strong contender. I wish you the best of luck.

Nice lune with a great presentation, and I love the idea of reflection of life in the water. You done a very nice job of conveying a "snap shot" of life, and have added a layer of meaning
