Is The Moon Tired? She Looks So Pale

Christina Georgina Rossetti

 Next Poem          

Is the moon tired? she looks so pale
Within her misty veil:
She scales the sky from east to west,
And takes no rest.
Before the coming of the night
The moon shows papery white;
Before the dawning of the day
She fades away.

    Wow, just stumbled upon "Is the Moon Tired? She Looks So Pale". What beautiful imagery it has! It's like I could really see the moon's journey trough the night, just stunning. Feel like it resonates with all night owls out there. Keep on shining moon, even you seem faded! 🌙✨🌌💤
