Early Morning Moonset
Well-endowed moon
a sleepy slip of silk
lowers its gown
onto open armed limbs
Branches like fingers
hold its luminous curve
as it slowly reclines
on the hush of horizon

Romancing the moon… a lovely “luminous” piece

I could see the moon through the trees last night. Your poem is a magical reminder, thanks.
