Cratered Gem!
No stone sets better then the Moon in June
With no band finer than clouds for its gold,
Which slips, like a crescent shaped amber balloon,
Into the ocean's gray embrace of cold.
The clockwork arms of Atlas ease the path
So only silent ripples ride the sea
As Luna dips into her salty bath
Of ancient tidal nodality...
Trading, with every orbital measure,
Some sky...for a place to hide her treasure!
With no band finer than clouds for its gold,

The clockwork arms of Atlas ease the path
So only silent ripples ride the sea
As Luna dips into her salty bath
Of ancient tidal nodality...
Trading, with every orbital measure,
Some sky...for a place to hide her treasure!
