Ode To the Moon

In the night sky there she smiles Watching lovers from distant miles After Mr, Sun neglects the world The gracious moon starts to unfold Joyful hearts wait the chance To see the moon spread romance She’s radiant, sensual, glowing bright, A witness to bodies fused at night To lonely hearts, warmth she gives To broken souls, light she leaves Could this sparkling jewel in the sky Be afraid to fall that high? Oh lovely maiden up above Does she weep she cannot love?

Great ending question to leave the reader wondering! Oh the sun and the moon play their parts so well and you described the moon playing witness to the world so well. Good job.

Nice imagination, John. Sun neglects and lady moon spreads her grace. The last question is heart touching.
