The aim of this research is to shed light on the poetic imagery which has been the concern of many poets; the image of the moon, this time in the viewpoints of two poets who are completely different in era and culture, but similar in their attitudes towards love and their sufferings from the consequences of love. The most important findings of the research might be the relationship between these two poems in ideas because both of them talk about sickness, sadness, loneliness, pale face, broken heart, rejecting love, homelessness, and hopelessness which can be seen in the poems clearly. Both use the same technique of questioning in their poems which are serious questions to the moon due to her experience.
