Regal Reign

A subtle shift in the shadows of sunset exposes the splendid Moon as She rises. Just as a cunning gambler hedges his bet She shines Her best displaying Her surprises. She slinks across the restless sky, a coquette, limning traits of the goddess She comprises. During Her reign over the darkening night Her regal demeanor dispels the day's light.
