Moon Stars

(I've wanted to say this for a long time but didn't know how...guess poetry is subtle enough :) Thank u Zeecuf! Thank you whitefield electricity board and thank you stars....if I were a meteorologist I'd spend all my evenings gazing at the sky, from sunset to sunrise..sigh)

Moon stars

The tiniest timid star gives out jittery twinkles
Swallowed by an all-engulfing glow from the moon.

A twinkling wish would grant a passing glance
While this crescented half-life
Steals more spotlight than it deserves.

The queen of the night stars in every fairytale.
The gold spark wanes under clouds
Like the true friend of a princess
Who would let the sun love only the moon.
