Eight-line Poems

Moonshine

Moonshine

How bright the nightly moon doth wax!
It guides us so into our tracks,
the poet sings of silvered nights,
the lover claims romantic rights,
the spaceman fares from here to there,
the farmer tells the time of year,
and, strange to tell, the lunatic
is led to speak in terms emphatic.
