Edward Mccall Poet Blank verse

A Beckon Call

A beckon call from twilight
And the moon does rise to
Chase the sun from its
High place.
 Fleeing from the presence
Of Luna the sun goes quietly
To its rest.
 Now sitting upon the throne
Of the night the moon showers
Earth with its cold yet beautiful
Silver light. 
 Her shimmering countenance
Captures the mind of those 
who Reach out with their 
eyes and Rediscover 
it's beauty.
 But alas a beckon call from 
 Dawn and the sun does rise
To chase the moon from its
High place and a new day Begins.
