Pearl

The moon is like a pearl
In heaven's dusky dress.
A splendor of iridescence...
It glows with mellowness.

The stars are meshed in dewdrops,
They shed a silvery light
Upon a sleeping universe...
The hush of velvet night.

A spray of golden moonbeams,
Clings in soft caress.
The moon is like a pearl,
In heaven's dusky dress.
