A Message From The Moon
while
everyone
on earth
was burning,
and yearning
for a mundane affair,
a crescent was born
it peaked above us all
with a spiritual call
asking
everyone
to heal

Dear friend Rula
one more example of your innovation and creativity. I liked both the form and substance of the verses creating a crescent smile of the moon.
Well done artist Rula...

Hello Raj
I thought of this as the newly born crescent of this month brought the holy month of Ramadan which brings so many blessings for the Muslims who fast this month. Saying that, I preferred to keep it general as each moon is so special and always holds an aloof message while shining through the darkness.
Thanks for your supportive kind words friend.

Thank you Mark
It does take a lot of time especially that it's the first shape poetry for me,however, I thought it's worth it to express the mood of such a month.

artistic, surrealistic and universalistic. Well designed and well expressed.

nice concrete poem!
I never understood why a poem in a shape is called that...
I have troubles doing anything like this on the site- indentions, italics...how were you able to paste this up? I cannot find the means in the formatting section.

I think she has done this
I think she may have done this using space bar...just a wild guess

Rula
you always beat me
so I only admire thee
some time ago
I also composed
a crescently poetry
but it always lined up
along the side lines of neo's
and let the crescent go
now I also know
how about it to go

Hi Rula
Posting form poetry can be a real challenge. I know this is supposed to be a crescent as well as what the shape stands for. That all being said it would come across better if the shape was a bit smoother.......stan

Hello Stan
I of course understand your point. I tried my best for a smoother shape, but the site advanced formatting wouldn't help much to show shapes. I however have done some minor edits as recommended by you and wonder if the shape now looks any better.
Always appreciate your time and thoughts.
Be well.
