Notes About The Poem

The Moon In June

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 June.8.2022 ~Placed Seventh~ The Moon in June Poetry Contest Sponsor- Andrea Dietrich

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!
