Sunlit rays gild a coppery Moon;
intensifying Her golden glow.
And She shimmers like a gold doubloon;
in a creek, where rippled waters flow.
She adopts a halo over time;
highlighting Her celestial ascent.
And like a Goddess, She starts Her climb;
a starlet in this gala event.
An ebony curtain pierced by stars
ushers in the beauty of the Night.
And a red blush tints the planet Mars;
as Venus reveals Her virgin light.
Birds surrender the night skies to bats;
playing hide and seek with skittish moths.
And along with silken welcome mates,
spiders spin intricate tablecloths.
Dark swallows the relevance of Day;
imposing itself upon the Night.
And color silently fades away;
amidst the last vestiges of light.
