Favorite Quote:
And one day, the girl with the books became the woman writing them.


Silver beams shine down upon

The sleeping world awaiting dawn.

The moonlight tricks the eyes of those

Who as a sentinel shall pose

To guard their family from harm

And must evade sleeps pleasant charm.

But one more guard shall take it’s stand

And shed it’s light throughout the land:

The moon, steadfast against the sky

Is watching from it’s place on high.

And underneath her watchful eyes 

Dance bats and birds and fireflies.

For though the world is fast asleep,

And midnight’s meant for slumber deep,

For some, the fun has just begun;

They’re dancing in the midnight sun.

I wrote a poem about the sun so I thought I should write one about the moon.
