Moon Takes Her Place Each Night (Monchielle Form)
Moon takes her place each night -
mysterious bright orb.
Few have escaped her spells,
as proved over the years.
In poets’ words she dwells.
Moon takes her place each night -
bids sleepy Sun adieu.
Lights up night’s sky so bright;
together with the stars,
this lamp provides delight.
Moon takes her place each night -
shines beams down to the earth.
Some use them in their dreams,
staircases to ascend -
bathing in lunar streams.
Moon takes her place each night -
the weary take their rest.
Selene directs our sleep,
fueling fantasies.
Harm from our doors she’ll keep.
