Prettily Pink



So prettily pink
shining down from the sky
The prettiest super Moon
she doth catch my eye
Much larger than normal
It feels even I
could reach out
could touch her
so prettily pink
as she lights up the sky
This exquisite pink beauty
brings tears to my eyes
tears of joy 
not of sadness
as she 
lightens 
as she 
brightens 
dressed so prettily pink 
A full Moon
A super Moon
how lucky am I
to see this pink beauty 
in my early morning sky
