A Night At a Countryside

As the moonlight shone over the mountains
The stars starts to flicker one by one
Humming winds eases the roughness
From the day's unforgiving sun.

Chilling wind caresses the darkness
Serenading them softly and low
Night critters goes out to mingle
Under the moon's mesmerizing glow.

The calm river chimes in its flowing
Flickering waves illumes the riverside
The chilling winds keeps on pushing
Quenching the thirst of the countryside.

As the sun lifts the shroud covering
Of mountain tops to the grass of the plains
Leaves and flowers bow to dew drops falling
As the sun kisses them once again.

You're a natural rhymer, I think. Aside from a few bumps in rhythm and couple of grammatical mistakes (e.g. "stars starts"), this a wonderful read filled with great imagery. You are quite a talented fellow and I appreciate your rhymes (I mostly write in rhyme). Another excellent poem you've penned here :)

Thank you. Though I don't know much about poetic forms but I just like mix and matching words. Hopefully I can improve more. Btw, english is not my mother tongue.
