I used up all my sixes, alas, as this contest is full of great poems, and this one is a sixer for sure. Tight and polished. Superb personification. Superb juxtaposition of dark and light. Just one spag typo, as the word smiles should not be capped.

Heaven,
chasing moonbeams,
Smiles as it races by.

Good phonetics wit all the S sounds, especially in the closing line, and the simple rhymes. I enjoyed the pacing too! Fine presentation. Good luck.

Warmly, rd

A lovely homepage to the night sky. Beautiful artwork to compliment your work. I too love the night sky and a starry night sky is a joy to see.

I enjoyed reading and wish you luck in the contest.
Blessings

Just wanted to look through a couple of your other works. This is beautiful, and says much for so few words.
Bravo.
My best wishes.

Earth,
humbled by its own dark coat,
looks up to the starry sky.

Heaven,
chasing moonbeams,
Smiles as it races by.

albeit on the short side, I rather like your entry for the contest -- sometimes one can speak volumes with so few words - good luck to you.

I've seen pictures similar to this where high speed advanced photography is used.
It never ceases to amaze me.
Your short poem was pretty amazing too.
It conjures up some great imagery even without the stunning artwork.
Well done.

A very well-written poem about a starry night on earth we can humbly enjoy and smile as it race by over our heads. The universe make us look small and insignificant

Happy New Year to you and your family.
