Moon Baby (Tri-fall)

by Meena Krish   Feb 7, 2011


Sweet little moon baby
at long last
you've arrived, my awaited boon,
playful bouncing baby
your laughs cast
melodies from morning to noon

In your glowing embrace
smiles the night
fond moments of love you create
with tender words and grace,
young white knight
for you my life opens its gate

To my dark eyes a gift
of small light
where golden coos become treasures
you keep this heart adrift
with delights
and your presence none can measure

    I really like this form and you have done a wonderful job with it. The form seemed correct in every aspect but I'm not sure as I didn't pay it too much attention but you still seemed to give your message off even while incorporating it into a poem and even a form. The imagery is really good and I like how i can visualize a lot of the poem and also the flow went right from line to line.

    In all I really liked the message this poem delivers and I like how you went about writing it. This poem shows your talent and even poetic creativeness. So before I go on forever I just want you to know I think you did a wonderful job with the poem. Great job and keep writing.
