Moon

waxing

at her sidelong glance
sun, fear of falling in love
blushes hides and sets

full

enthroned blissfully
on chariot of fair lambs
in her bridal charm

waning

rubbing shoulders with
the hard haughty hazy sky
she grows weak and thin

This was so romantic and lovely. I must say there is something really sensual about moon and romantic love.
