The Forever Nostalgic Crescent


              The lusting evergreen grass delightfully sunbathes within the pleasant rays of daylight. However, towards dusk, it sways with the wind gratefully farewelling the setting sun. The true blue sky transforms into a painted portrait of warm purple and pink hues accompanying the dying warmth of the star. A myriad of diamonds dots the coming night as the moon begins its reign over the heavens. The illuminating crescent romantically gleams upon the boulevards and allies. But nonetheless, it truly seeks to reach into the hearts of the love-stricken. For some, its gleam serves as a protecter to defeat the dark forces attempting to usurp power. Though for most, the dear moon brings a sense of endless nostalgia, in which is so lovely yet lonely. It glistens in isolation upon the stars which dance throughout the galaxies lightyears away. It so faithfully serves our world in search of a friend. However, we can only stretch out so far to embrace the moon in great thanks. We live our lives in hope that it knows of our appreciation for its eternal kindness. It waits through every minute of the night, for a soul to come out of the house and play within its rays as he does with the sun's.

  1. This was wonderfully written, it was poetic. The way this was approached is different from how all the others approached writing this blog. There is a poetic and unique approach to it. Although it was well written, it could have been better if Katya added what she thought during her time outside. Fantastic job though!

  2. Katya's interpretation of nature and her environs is different from the others. She has brought her surroundings to life with her imagination and poetic words. Her diction is incredible as she personifies the moon, saying that it "seeks to reach into [our] hearts." Katya took a different route on the assignment, observing nature at night as opposed to during the day. Fantastic writing girl!

  5. Katya has transformed the ordinarily viewed aspects of nature to magnificent ideaologies connecting to people's lives. As a nature enthusiast this piece truly spoke to me. It brings a reminder of one of my favorite quotes I live by, "Live by the sun, feel by the moon". The sun brings one energy to get thorough each day with a bright smile and positive energy, while the moon connects to people's spiritual sensitivity.

  6. Katya has done an astonishing job. She has left me speechless and in awe. Unfathomable beauty and eccentricity is described within her words. Her extraordinarily top of the line diction brought her thoughts to life. Her description exceeds perfection and could literally picture the beauty and essence of nature. Absolutely stunning, Kat!
