Storybook Moon
If someone told you, “Draw the moon
And try to get it right,”
The picture you’d depict would be
What’s hanging there tonight…
The perfect crescent, all a’glow,
Like in a storybook
And it looked less like it was real
With every glance I took.
There aren’t many nights like this
When it is opportune
To behold that classic sliver
Of a fairy tale-type moon.
