The Moon Was A Giant Pearl Last Night Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

The Moon was a giant pearl last night
That hang from a brilliant chain of stars.
Its brightness glowed in a covering light,
I tried to reach for it, it was too far.

I slumbered on to a fanciful dream
Where I rode on white clouds floating by,
Touching the glitter of every moonbeam
Like diamonds laid on velvet blue sky.

With amazing speed, I soared galaxies,
Then white clouds seem to have melted,
Like a shooting star my flight's gone amiss
With a thud I fell on my soft, downy bed.
