Dance Of The Night Sky

                                            Full luminescent Moon
                                           Wears a rainbow crown
                               Of red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
                                Reflecting the dancing stars of wonder
                                     In the middle of an ocean gown
                                                  Of panes gray
                                               As the fast moving,
                                    Bending white fluffy clouds drown
                                      Pass by veiling it for moments
                                        Breaking down to spellbind
                                            Bright puffs of clouds
                                     Conforming to different shapes
                                         That drape the night sky

I hope you don't mind a correction? The last line needs to have the word "drapes" altered to "drape", as it has to take the plural conjugation.

Leonora, thank you so very much for the complement. I was watching the night sky the other night and it just fascinated me how fast the clouds were moving, I guess strong winds closer to the heavens. The sky was just beautiful with the full moon with the rainbow color of moisture and the very dark blue and gray like night with a flicker of stars. Blessings and I hope you had a wonderful Easter Sunday
