Barry Stebbings Poet Rhyme

New Born Moon

New Born Moon


     Laying low in the cloudless evening sky,

     Silver lit by the rapid setting sun,

     Where radiant Venus shines bright nearby,

     A waxing crescent, the moon’s month begun.

     A new born moon in the darkening sky,

     Set where the fading day at rest will lie.
