a/n - I know the flow is off...but here it is anyway...my first Pantoum. Enjoy. :)
Silken flower of the moon Lily white enclosed in sleep Taking its secrets with its croon As the stars above swoon the deep
Lily white enclosed in sleep Slightly swaying with the winds tune As the stars above swoon the deep Petals slowly open to the silver hues boon
Slightly swaying with the winds tune She impatiently indulges in lace of light to steep Petals slowly open to the silver hues boon And lick with their spoon-tongues its illuminate sweep
She impatiently indulges in lace of light to steep Never wanting to close her petals again too soon, And lick with their spoon-tongues its illuminate sweep Before the giver of light fades behind the clouded dune
Never wanting to close her petals again too soon, Taking its secrets with its croon Before the giver of light fades behind the clouded dune Silken flower of the moon

What I might do when I feel like it is try to fix it up a bit. Thank you for your reply, I am glad you enjoyed it so much. And yes, I am a nature girl at heart...and a sentimental girl... :). Thanks again. :)
