The blue expanse deepened
And the white dreamy clouds of morn were merely darker patches in the sky
The sky turned from one shade of sapphire to another
Until the deepest bluest blue spread across the heavens
A full moon quietly rose
And sent moonbeams into treetops and cottage windows
The silvery lamp lit the sky
Until the break of dawn
(This is an old poem I wrote as a teenager but recently changed the last 2 lines above from:
And fairies slid down
Their silvery laughter ringing in the still air
And played with children in their dreams)
