The Moon Fenced By Stars Poem by Daya Nandan

The beautiful gleam of the midnight orb,
Such glowing beauty for eyes to absorb,
All of mankind have romantisized such beauty,
Admiring the moon cycle as it goes about it's duty,

Generations of mankind have written sonnets of the moon,
Awaiting it's beautiful fullness that never comes too soon,
Different cultures and races describe its beauty so well,
The entire world mesmerised by it's hypnotising spell,

Yet the gentle moon is not alone,
For the velvet sky has decorations of its own,
Shining starts blanket the evening sky,
Enhancing the moons beauty to the naked eye,

Such a wonder is a gift from mother nature that we know,
That reminds me of such beauty that I know,
A proverb well described in a traditional malay tongue,
Dia bagaikan bulan yang dipagari bintang.
