New Moon Waiting

An interesting depth

to the darkened skies beneath the new moon. The metaphor of the patient new moon, awaiting the light to reveal its true dimension was a nice nuance. I thought perhaps the wording could be trimmed some in areas, but everything did work.

I loved the use of "verdancy" here:

"The stars surely would appease the longing
Set into their lush verdancy
Blooming into a super nova"

I haven't thought of stars as verdant, but this unique look works very well. Very nicely done.
