Cecil Hickman Poet Acrostic

Cradle Moon

Cradle me in darkness, before my flight.
Relaxing let me live my dream so true.
Again, I entreat you to set my desires free.
Delight my senses set my vision in truth.
Laugh not at wishes; they are my design.
Earthborn from the Angels delivered here.

My existence a falsehood for way to long,
Only you can bring my caprice to reality.
One soul delivered from a torment I live.
Now cradle moon bring peace to your child.
