 In the quiescent quietude of a tranquil June night
Stood Queen Moon in her diadem with an entourage of handmaids
Her shimmering rays like a slithering silvery stream
Came down sliding, slanting and crashing
Turning the night into one of fluorescent effulgence

Lovely as the moon itself Valsa! Wonderful alliteration carrying the vision of the "Queen Moon." So creative to think of the stars as her handmaids. Best wishes for the contest. I think Andrea will love this one for its creativity and brilliant imagery! Blessings dear friend!
