Moonlight

Moonlight

Embracing close climbing Rose
A silver suitor to propose
 Marriage in the moonlight.

Rose now wears his sparkling ring
Gazing, enchanted, beautiful bling –
 Diamonds of moonbeams.

Stars of night – groomsmen ascendants
Primrose, Jasmine – attendants
 Bouquets of moonflowers.

Invitations, the first dance,
Cake of moonpies, per chance, 
 Auntie Luna’s moonshine?

Evening wedding seems the plan –
Garden nuptials close at hand –
 Vows caressed by moonglow.
