MQ 05.1: Gypsy Moon
T’was
cool and dry
as ancient silk,
and bright as a lunar pearl.
Its light poured into rooms,
disowning
all it touched.
That moon shined on
like a new religion,
keeper of all
I knew.
By day
it tucked away
sheltered in my bed.
MQ 05.2
We disappointed him.
He flung his birthday gift
into the corner.

Your Gypsy Moon quadrille is luminous, Misky. I love the phrase ‘bright as a lunar pearl’, which is a vivid in my mind’s eye, and the image of the moon tucked away in bed.
You r American sentence has left me wondering what was so wrong with the birthday gift that it was flung in the corner!
