The Moon Embraced the Sun

The shy Moon dims her silver to sleep Bored of wishes from chattering Stars She nods off into the dawn glimpsing The handsomeness of the morning Sun As twilight breaks the Moon's dreams She awakes from the warmth of the Sun The mighty yellow sphere bows into the sea The Moon glows pining for the glorious Sun Twinkle blinking and mean-full winking Those pestering Stars laugh out loud And mock the Moon to break Into her crescent shape and blue shade The Moon closes her eyes waning away Wishing for dawn just to glance At her beautiful prince of light Shining with rays of brightness Whispering Stars secrets dim into day Their rhythm of rhyme reaches the Sun Curious he becomes of the Moon Does she really love me? A wave of warmth covers the Moon She peers into the light to see The smiling face of the mighty Sun She awakes new and full The busy Earth looks up Two celestial bodies embrace The Moon eclipses the Sun And blocks his light from sight The full Moon shines her silver Bouncing off waves she smiles Stars blink and twinkle quietly The Earth hushes round and round As dawn breaks the Sun waves And the Moon bows way for day They have their moments to be Those silly stars blush silently.
