The man in the moon
was pale and hazy
on a haunted, lonely night.
Spiders worked steadily
building crystal webs
deep in the shadows.
Nocturnal creatures
became animated
and night was busy.
The man in the moon
sunk away into the earth,
removed for the day.
Spiders' webs glistened
collecting tiny watery dots.
As morning dew dropped.
Nocturnal business
settled into a quiet,
peaceful sleep.
A smoldering ball
arose from the same earth
where the moon had disappeared.
Chirping birds with musical sounds
delight expectant ears
with their own special songs.
Delighted spiders
get busy collecting their trapped food.
Day had begun.
I'd like some feedback.

This was fantastic. Loved the adjectives. I especially loved the way you chose to end it. I really felt like I was seeing the things you described...such vivid imagery. Wonderful job. Thank you for writing.
