Staring at the Moonlight Glare

Staring at the moonlight glare1

Running my fingers through her hair2

As we lay upoun the beach3

Our Hearts are longing to reach4

Never knew this moment would come5

Life seems to be getting fun6

Never knew I would be in love7

The moon shines on her as it would a precious dove8

the sun is starting to come up9

Oh how I wish this moment wasn't up!10

    For me the worst thing about the word, "dove" is simply that it is an trite way to express an emotion.

    It was a pleasant poem to read because it reminded me that young or old, those same desires to be with the one we love remains the same. We may age but love does not.

    Thanks for entering the contest.

    Your poem has a soft feel on it, and you show quite lovely imageries here.

    Most of the rhymes worked well, but I felt that at some point you tried too hard to rhyme and lost the flow, as in
    Never knew I would be in love
    The moon shines on her as it would a precious dove


    There it seems that the word dove came just for the sake of rhyming.

    In anyevent, a lovely short poem and I thank you for bringing it to us
    All the luck with everything you do.
