Shadows Trail To the Afterglow

In the darkest she danced blissfully, The moon did glow, yet hearts cried. Yes young maiden rest now peacefully, In the shadow she danced blissfully Unaware now, these trains passed, As she danced, the penumbra lied, In the darkest she danced blissfully, The moon did glow, yet hearts cried.

I like this, Tim. Some people are not doing true triolets and It's so nice to see someone who is not butchering the form. Wonderful!

Wowsers! I loved the reference to the moon. I think good poetry comes from the moon's influence. Great Work!!
