## Prompt

```text
Create a tranquil classical Chinese ink-and-watercolor seascape at night, in a wide horizontal 3:2 composition. Show a vast blue moonlit ocean merging with a misty spring river estuary, with a large full moon slightly right of center above the horizon and a long shimmering silver reflection stretching down the water toward the foreground. Use soft washes, delicate brush texture, pale cyan-blue atmosphere, gentle mist, and subtle rice-paper grain. Include hazy mountain ranges and a low shoreline on the left distance, faint islands on the far right horizon, and layered clouds around the moon. In the foreground, frame the scene with two rocky promontories: left rocks with a small traditional pavilion partly hidden among pale pink blossoms and a drooping willow, and right rocks with another leafless/drooping willow silhouette. Include exactly 6 boats: 1 foreground sailboat near the lower center-left, 1 larger fishing boat in the left-middle water, 1 tiny boat near the left distant shore, 1 tiny boat on the central horizon under the moon path, 1 tiny sailboat right of center, and 1 small fishing boat on the right-middle water. Add vertical Chinese calligraphy in the upper left with the poem text {poem_text}, plus a smaller dated signature column beneath it and a small red seal; add another small red artist seal in the bottom-right corner. The mood should be serene, poetic, luminous, and traditional, like a refined Song-dynasty-inspired landscape painting. Use {color_palette} and keep all details painterly rather than photorealistic.
