A Silhouette

A SILHOUETTE

                     Rich pasture land covered with green garland.
                         Cowboy chasing cattle, gaily grazing,
                             idly chewing soft grass on open wide meadow,
                                with satisfied half closed sleepy eyes. 
                                 A soporific scenario at hot noon of summer
                                Afternoon cools ambient, rural panorama salient silent   

                           Sun sinking down, twilight faded, evening merged.
                           Full Moon smiled on firmament.
                          Peasants, farmers, rustics, all were on way to home.
                         Scary thrill spread across the populace faces
                         on spectacular sight of pitch black silhouette on sky,
                       glittering glimmering on shiny silvery scales.
                      Dreadful dragon was passing the Moon.
                    On its back sat a fairy with curly hair 
                  pushed back like trail of comet.
