Excellent

This 3-5-3, Meet Me in the Dark, has the right syllabic format and brings this photo to life as we bask in the revealing and concealing moon glow. Nice.

It took me a while to figure this one out. Once I figured it out this is an outstanding 3-53 poem with lots and lots of imagery and the picture is perfect for the poem

So true, as we get older, the dark seems to hold more spice and a certain amount of excitement. This is especially true, when we remind ourselves of being younger and so vibrant. In the dark we can hide, who we really are, but still enjoy ourselves in the present. Good Luck and Best Wishes in the Contest! Sherman541

Comment from Gloria ....

Excellent

I've read a few of these, and there are some really gone entries, including this one, author. Yes the reflection of the moon can certainly add a flavour of youth that perhaps might not be evident, in exactly the same way in the bright of sun.

Excellent post and I wish you the best in the contest.

Thanks a million. At my age, I just look better in the dark. :))

I loved the words, and your form was perfect... The picture was awesome, but the quality of picture and video was a little less than what I would have wanted... However, the words are artful, delicious and so true.

Oh yeah, the video. It's uploaded from an old cassette tape. Sorry, it's all there is. Glad you liked the poem though, that's the main thing. Thanks so much. :))

Oh, this is super good. It's so hard to get emotion and imagery like that into such a shortie. I really, really, really like this poem. "darkness reflecting youth's mirage"!!!! Oh my!

I think this is a good entry for the 3-5-3 writing prompt.
Your short verse tells of lunar swoon reflecting youth.
Well done and good luck to you with this one in the competition.

Comment from rspoet

Excellent

This is a fine 3-5-3 poem and entry for the contest
Excellent imagery of the moon
in the form I think should be the American haiku (or lune)
You had me fooled as I thought the top line was the title
which leads to my only minor suggestion
to use the script font throughout.
Great art work and
Excellent music video, too.
(I suggest higher volume on the vocal, lower instrumental,
I like to hear the lyrics clearer, just me)
Well done on all counts!
Good luck in the voting.
RS

I could've sworn I responded to this. Hmm ...
Well, I did change the font as you suggested and you were right, much better.
The recording is from an old cassette, so I can't do much about it. I know it's not the best quality. Sorry, it's all there is. :))
Thanks for the great review and suggestion. :))
