Rites of Harvest Moon --Hexsonnetta

When harvest moon alights, to sail like gauzy lace on through a cloud’s embrace... I watch her mystic rites, as beaming, she excites my lithesome hours of grace. How glorious the view atop a mountain crowned… with lilies all around that settle on her queue, beguiling eve, anew when sparklers reach the ground. Till weaves of dawn advance which ends fine Luna’s trance. -------------- Andrea Diterich's The HexSonnetta Rhyme Scheme: a/bb/aa/b c/dd/cc/d ee ~ the word glorious has 3 syl count~ 8/22/2015
