This Generous Moon

THIS GENEROUS MOON This waxing moonOn us does swoon Nowt of a shadowUpon this chateau Windows as hazesGlistened phrases Glittered orb starsWithin leaded bars Seeing wink blinksOn us all, it inflicts Bounty ripe kissesEvery one glistens Gifted; from MoonA starlight festoon Upon this chateauOn each to bestow Indiana Shaw . . . -_- "The near full moon shone down onto the dark unlit French chateau, shining onto the leaded diamond shaped glass windows sending out a multitude of star like rays, (festoon) Moon's gift to all who saw it" . . . : )

Yes! A pretty image, Diane! Reminds me of life in the country in France. (Read about it so much that I feel I've been there). ~ thanks, gw

Yes, it's about a French chateau, given I had a certain chateau in mind, a lovely place within its own acres of forest, winery, and a moat to boot, ahh, an idyllic life we can only dream of, eh Gershon . . . ; )
