As I Sail the Midnight Sky

As I Sail the Midnight Sky 

Written by Adam M. Snow 

I see the moon, smiling down 

as I sail the midnight sky. 

Among the starry night I'll drown 

in the sea of stars, I 

will sail my ship onward pass 

the endless morrow, endless space, 

where my journey ends. Alas! 

Where in slumber I embrace.

I really enjoy how simple this is, yet how much imagery it conjures. Great job.

Wow, the rhyme scheme was very well done! It was simple yet thoughtful in its wording.

The moon, the stars, the sea—you have all my favorite things in one poem. Beautifully crafted, Adam.

Almost as if the image shown was made to fit the words, or the words to fit the image. Masterfully short without the sudden dead end drop-off found in other poems of similar length.

Your writing has an almost dreamlike quality. The images you create with your words are wonderful and leave me pondering the message long after the poem is read.

Be it under the stars in slumber or just stars in your dreams, the journey is endless, but fruitful. a lovely composed write and the picture plays with the imagery suggested.
