Crescent Moonbeams

Crescent moonbeams easterly
Red sun against blue, rises.
Hope today comes leisurely! 
Today showers are prizes.

Rain helps beans to develop.
Whip-poor-will's song supreme
Humidity envelops
Those eastern crescent moonbeams     


Another try at Ae Freislighe (aye, freshly)
7 syllables per line
lines 1 and 3 rhyme with a 3 syllable ending word
lines 2 and 4 rhyme with a two syllable ending word
The first line's beginning phrase ends the last stanza. 
You can go on and on with stanzas, but the last line of the last stanza has to end with the first lines beginning phrase. 
Its theme is supposed to be about nature...
