BOB, Your last para concludes this poem very effectively! In fact it is full of Zen Philosophy! Actor Richard Geare, the Buddhist, would also love to read this too! Thanks for sharing! 10 + -Raj

Sigh! This is simply glorious Bob. I loved the 'citrus segment' of the moon. You are a true artist and have painted such wonderful pictures in my mind. I hope that my mind won't be empty but filled with the images of your poem as I embrace a sleep of dreams. Top marks! Karin Anderson

Peaceful, natural and convincing images I find myself drawn to Mr Blackwell. A skilfully piece of poetic sketching which had a genuinely relaxing effect on this reader. A pleasure to read and contemplate. Thank you. jim (PS It was a much more leisurely and decent world too. We've lost a lot in the last few decades.)

'With no thoughts, it embraces a golden silence, that soothes and heals our still anxious, troubled World.' 10 for this moving composition.

Wonderful poem Bob! I saw that blood orange moon, arising last night darkness surrounded, an eerie glow, a captivating sight as it rose its color changed, yellow to silver bright the waters rippled in its glow, of that beautiful moonlight kindest regards Bob
