Luna's Light
Location
Earth’s shadow shrugged on a clear summer’s night
Full moon rises to show radiant light
Not knowing for certain where it shines from
Roosters crow in vain for dawns yet to come
Somnambulists roam convinced it is day
Children still sleeping yet eager to play
The light is a ruse a clever deceit
Borrowed some sunshine but lost all its heat
The aim is to mirror sol’s warming rays
But the night never sheds Luna’s blue haze
A vibrant pearl floating high in the sky
Beauty to cherish even if it’s a lie
Allurement enhanced by its pock mark scars
Voyaging through all the twinkling stars
Horizon to horizon traversing space
The moon shares its glow by changing its place
Rose bloom approaches a new day begins
Moon’s light melted by its hot burning twin’s
