Jewel In the Sky

o how
                                    i love the
                            gentle shape 
                        of a crescent
                    moon overhead
                 hanging in the sky
                amongst the stars
                 how I adore the 
                    idyllic shape of 
                        a crescent moon 
                            way up high
                                    in amongst 
					       the stars

I have my curtains open in my little poetry corner and your crescent moon is almost as bright as the one shining in our South African sky. No stars though, too much air and city light pollution! Great poem. Hugs, Jennifer.
