The Trickster and the Moon

Surely there is a sly trickster in the sky tonight
      He’s pulled a magic cape slowly across the moon
      As there could never be scientific explanation
      For the golden beauty seen and gone too soon….

I love the "sly trickster" concept in your excellent poem, Barbara. Just a small thing, but I think you may want to change "to soon" to "too soon", for correct spelling. Good luck in the contest :)
