MOONSHINE
Daylight was slowly slipping away,
Shadowed boxes were filled emptiness,
With a wisp a will and way.
Weary trees phantomed night.
Silhouettes were forever whispered sound.
Light of lamp and moon thus bright.

Shine!!

Bright thus moon and lamp of light,
Sound whispered forever were silhouettes.
Night phantomed trees weary.
Way and will a wisp a with.
Emptiness filled were boxes shadowed,
Away slipping slowly was daylight.

    Reads very nice, Gillena. I liked the "shadowed boxes" the best. You might try it with 'sounds' rather than 'sound'.
