Gratitude for:

for the fertile crescent in the desert

crescent moon changing my tune

crescent smiling when I touch

crescent rocking into crescendo

crescent of your arms at rest

  6. And don't forget those fresh from the bakery crescent croissants that always make me smile, too! Seriously though, I enjoyed the love infused in your micro fiction.

  9. Impressively spontaneous in effect, in spite of being written within rather rigid constraints. And the repetition works very well.

  12. One day I will become less verbose unless of course someone starts a prompt day of "write something longer than 300 words in free verse octet form."
