Dreams`shade at nightfall
Oh, sing, dawnless moon
Forever escaping
The Earth's dreary gloom
Wist`ful at darks`dawn
Oh, sing, timeless moon
Wandr`ing alotfly
Thru space` endless noon
Burn`hope at days`end
Oh, joy, fallen star
Beauty abounding
Which no haunting can mar
Hearts`love at star`rise
Oh, swoon, gentle sky
cradles of dreams`dust
`til Sun`s rising nigh
Peace`sleep, sky`dweller
Oh, rest, graceful sprite
Exquisite, unearthly,
Supreme Empress of Night

I don't think the rhyme sounded forced, very nice flow -
not so much, no. you used a clever enough vocabulary that the rhyming sounds fine to my ears. the visuals were great, i could hold the moon in my mind and feel that ive paid the night sky homage by merely reading. =)
