Rainbow Moon

Transluscent clouds wander the skies, A veil over the stars.

A gentle glow surrounds the night, From ringed Saturn to Mars.

Majestically and silently

The planets burn and blaze, Shimmering behind frail clouds, Their light a glittering haze.

But most magnificent of all,

In a ring its clouds are strewn, A sight that’s rare but precious: A rainbow round the moon.
