The Crescent Moon

Moonrise and showers                         
Enshrine flowers                                  
A stroll along the shoreline  

Starlight and halos   
Eternal cosmos
The awakening angel 

Lullabies and shadows
Mystifies meadows      
The calypso personifies                    

Coral and fireflies                   
Rainbow skies 
The radiant circle aglow  

Butterflies and ladybugs     
Intertwine jitterbugs                                 
The dance along the skyline
