Ode to the Moon

As darkness blocks your shining light
Your newness in the still of night
You’ll peek out at me soon
Till then oh precious moon

A glisten to my hearts delight
Has peered out at this soul tonight
A waxing crescent blue
I dance within your hue

In luminous first quarter glow
As darkness fades I watch you grow
To waxing gibbous bright
A captivating sight

Now full as ever you can be
This lunar marvel that I see
My longing is complete
This moment bitter sweet

For darkness comes again so swift
To cast upon your precious gift
A waning gibbous creep
Your glow a destined sleep

Last quarter has you half the way
My heart a feeble cry of nay
I know it shall be soon
Till waning crescent tune

One final wink of lunar sight
Before you rest your shining light
Inside the nights cocoon
A new to peek out soon...
till light, sweet precious moon.
