Good one! Man, this song stirs up some memories in me, bringing me to a place of contemplation. How did it feel to you, when you carried it? Has a bluesy feeling to it.
The intro runs down from G to B7 then Em but you sort of walk into the bass notes of G and B7 then hammer onto EM7 .Yeah it has a very bluesy feel and the little run down feels slick to play.Its fun to sing and play it, a good opener for open mics in pubs and Taverns.Thanks for the kind words :)
Hi everyone, here is my contribution to this week 💖💖

My goodness, your song is full of elegance. I feel graced by the presence of a moon with the gifts of her gentle glow.

English: Wow, your piano accompaniment is a welcomed addition to your delightful singing. Your song here took me on a journey. Good work.
Espanol: Vaya, su acompañamiento de piano es una adición bienvenida a su delicioso canto. Tu canción aquí me llevó de viaje. Buen trabajo.
I came in late for this, but had a blast making my video. So much that I forgot to announce the contest and the other details at the beginning. However, because of the effort put in its making, I decided to publish it anyway. Think of it as an honorary entry. Hope you like it: https://peakd.com/hive-105786/@bertrayo/hive-open-mic-week-33-or-media-luna-andina-vals-venezolano-de-cesar-prato
P.D: I couldn't try to edit an add the presentation because the internet connection wouldn't allow me to upload it in time.😅
Happy Saturday! Here my entry...

¡Hola amigos! Por aquí les comparto mi entrada de la semana. Esta poesía se enfoca más en el atardecer que en la luna, pero precisamente en el crepúsculo es donde comenzamos a notar la salida de la luna... ¡Espero les guste!
