As Day Breaks

As day breaks, tie dyed Cobalt Blue and pink dance~swirl Arm in arm twirl to nature's symphony, as crickets sing The sky above the horizon one giant pearl Warm moist cotton candy pirouette like last of spring As waning blue moon waits for your return cool fall Its blueness gone much later comes again a harvest moon When fall's crops have been laid to rest in barns so tall Then a new crop comes in, your blueness upon full fields is strewn Finis' A twist on Poulter's Measure 12, 14 with rhyme scheme ABAB The scheme is suppose to be couplets when it is 12,14 I have been thinking about definitions of Blue Moon Totally confused now... "Blue Moon as third full moon of four in a season. The Maine Farmer’s Almanac defined a Blue Moon as an extra full moon that occurred in a season. One season – winter, spring, fall, summer – typically has three full moons. If a season has four full moons, then the third full moon may be called a Blue Moon." Copied from article on the internet.. A Blue Moon by this definition was August of this year 2013..
