Morning Dew

When morning dew holds moonlight’s shine
    It’s glistened blush as night declines
    Unveiled by daybreaks grand display
  As breeze blows soft, a shimmered sway

   Clear lunar nights are brushed sublime
When morning dew holds moonlight’s shine
        All objects basking in its glow
   Gleam with a textured, raised plateau

  From deep within the moon’s soft beam
      A gentle kiss to daylight’s stream
When morning dew holds moonlight’s shine
    It sings like night and day combined

   That sparkled glint on morning’s brow
   A diamond’s hue the moon’s endowed
  Can reach your heart when eyes inclined 
When morning dew holds moonlight’s shine
