MOON

MOON

A Poem by Shalini Dinesh
















Slowly, steadily she came up high,
Ensconcing behind the cloudy sky,
On the green grass meadow as I lie,
I smiled imagining that she felt shy.

Thousands of stars winked her way,
From behind the clouds she did sway,
With her, the clouds loved to play,
Sullied her in shades of gray.

She glimmered all through the night,
Looking like a ball so pure in white,
Along with the stars she gives light,
She is nature’s midnight delight!

My pet peeve is to have every line rhyme with the same word. But other than that, this is a wonderful poem. It was beautiful and imaginative.

This is fantastic, your words are so beautiful and you've created a very peaceful and relaxing poem that reads so very smoothly. This creates such a wonderful picture of the moon as well. Outstanding!

Wonderful piece.. love the imagery. The last exclamation point kind of ruined it for me though.. you had a serene tone, and then that last line make it kind of seem strained for me.

Otherwise, great job.

You've painted a lovely picture with your poem .. included the many movements the moon makes and all to pretty strict meter. This is a beautiful phrase: 'She is nature’s midnight delight!'
