I live in the shadow of the moon.
I have grown and sprouted much too soon.
I will try with all my might
To live in the bright sunlight.
I close my eyes but yet I’m still here.
Sitting on a branch next to a pear.
My petals are white as snow
Because of this fact I know.
I will never be awake at day
No matter how hard I wish and pray.
For I live in the shadow of the moon
And I’m slated to sing the nightly tune.

I simply love the pictures you use for blogs they speak so much about the writing

Lovely rhyming poem Susanne. I think
You could easily remove “but” from the first line 1 of S2. Sometimes I forget I’m not back in workshopping.
