Queen of the Night

Look to the moon queen of night

she causes the ocean to attend her

And he so long as she is in sight

has full tide to kiss her tender

 

When she at last turns off her light

he calls the mighty waves to moan

With low ebb manifests his sorrow

heaving the fathoms with every groan

 

So you the keeper of my heart beat

have my joys attending your will

Lifting the weight so high and so deep

causing loves every wave to fill

 

When you are gone away from me

 as you sometimes are known to depart

Causes my very soul to ache

waves of sorrow flow from my heart

 

So like the ebb and flow of tide

life's joys and sorrows surrender

To the never ending song of love

we both give as much as we render

Its so... amazingly beautiful. Like Laraine... I'm at a loss for words....

[Kelley Quinn]

Beautiful. I'm at a loss for words.

[E. A. Fielder]

The push and pull of the tides with the moon is the give and take in a relationship between the moon and the sea (man and woman). This was very well put! I like it very much!

[Bhavya Kaushik]

The imagery in this piece is simply outstanding!
I felt like as if I'm not reading a poem, but looking at a masterpiece, a beautiful painting..

A beautiful piece of work! This is so peaceful.

[Faelyn ó Cuilinn]

This is so lovely. It reminds me of the Irish sea and the breeze blowing my hair everywhere. It is so charming. It gives such the personification of waves crashing. :)

Although you've used quite conventional images and the narrators voice is silent, this poem speaks loudly, with powerfull force of description and persuasion. It's influential.

I think the rhyme-scheme would be more effective if employed for all lines - ABAB... That would underline the majestic union between night, sea, moon, longing, deep soul emotion. Rhythm is off beat just because of that reason.

You use clear, puure but vibrating language, exact words and phrasing - this is a high-class poem.

Thank you very much!

i think one word describes it all : SERENE

[Lena M. P.]

It's the pulse, the rhythmic sounds of waves lapping the shoreline that is so peaceful and fulfilling. I also love to swim and play in the ocean. It is so invigorating.
