    I love the language you use in the poem, especially in the first line "when we were moons around a shared sphere of days" The language and the tone of the poem suspends a wonderful sense of nostalgia that runs through the whole of the poem. The enjambment you use causes the poem to flow really nicely. I also loved the way you establish a sense of introspection and inner world amongst the scene you describe. A wonderful write, well done!

    Great title, which is ironic to reader when they start to read the poem. I liked the simplicity of the poem which added to the poignancy of it's meaning.
