Full Moon

Full moon tonight
It started white
In a blue sky
Shyly appearing

The sun began to set
Behind the mountains
Leaving rays to show
Where it had been

The moon turned
To gentle orange
Changing light
Mood becomes reflective

Dark enveloped
All land below
Only full moon
With stars so small

This silver light
So cold and hard
Stays majestic
Until the dawn

And of course your full moon is my full moon, but a cloud-shrouded night makes me grateful for your account of it :-)

Lady M.:I am glad that I could share this full moon across the globe with you. :)

Great poem. But the first verse is hands down the best. Really lovely imagery.
