She Paints the Night

She’s the garden girl.
A precious rainbow 
in the night.
Painting with crystal water,
she brings the forest light.

For nature is her canvas.
She brings out every hue.
If you’re walking
through the forest,
she’ll shine her light on you.

She’s purply pink passion,
reds and yellows too.
The moon 
bestowed its magic,
shading her dark blue.

She languishes 
in the darkness,
as she giggles
with such glee.
No one knows her name.
She’s a pretty mystery.

So pretty, sparkly and delightful. So glad to have found. "For nature is her canvas "is my favorite line. Your poem would be enjoyable for me to paint :)
