Carolyn; it's a beautifully written poem that I enjoyed reading very much. It is very heartwarming and written with and read with ease. The rhyming neither forced nor labored was also well formulated to which each word of the rhyming fit with the concept of the poem and of each line. The topic is timeless and very annotative and philosophically sound. An excellent acrostic poem that read very smoothly. Thank you for sharing and posting and may the good Lord be with you always my friend.

    Thanks Tom, this is not one of my photos but I do a great deal of photography in the West. We leave for Arizona on 1/12 for a couple of weeks. My inspiration is fueled from scenery such as this. As always your comments are so appreciated.

Hi Carolyn,

This is a beautiful poem and again you did a great job in writing it. I like the Bible verse too. It's always so much to fun to read your poetry. The picture you used with it is nice also.

Hi Carolyn,
Super acrostic poem with a good spiritual side to it.
It takes a good imagination and command of the English
language to come up with acrostics that make sense,which this one does.

I'm way behind on responding so I'm going to leave you with this small return,
God bless 2015,
Friend Jerry

Nice acrostic, describing the rise of moonlight. Good alliteration of the s sound in the first line. Well done!

I love the way you have made this a dedication and a recognition of God placing the moon to rule the night and the sun to rule the day, beautiful language has turned an everyday thing we may take for granted into a piece of poetic art, well done, Carolyn, well done, blessings, Roy.

Your fifth line is missing from the poem. There is no line beginning with 'R'. This will not meet the competition requirements as it is not an acrostic. Swiftly to the editing room!

The poem itself is good but this is a big oversight!
