Moonlight on Meadows


Meandering through the moonlit meadows, 
    the moonbeams cast magical mauve shadows;
The clair de lune cloaks the clouded clearing, 
    Arcane rays gleam in august appearing;
Thus enchants the round empyrean queen
    with elysian echoes etched on the scene;
The land lighted by the lambent lantern
    looks lush with luminous lunar pattern;
The celestial chandelier calmly charms
    night's blue blooms without belligerent qualms;
The steppe sleeps under sentinel silver
    who guards the grassland with glows that shimmer;
The pale white pearl projects peace on the plains, 
    Under her creamy care, no one complains.
