I am The Moon by Maylynn Grace R. Nisperos
I am the moon with a shape of sphere I am big and white, loves to reflect the sunlight.
I am the moon and I love to play a game, because I don't always look the same.
In the beginning, I am new, out of sight from all of you. Sometimes I'm a crescent, up from here, smiling at you.
Look up in a clear sky, You will see my friendly bright light. Can you guess what shape will I have when see me tonight?

Answer:
1. The poem is all about the moon.
2. The moon likes to play game.
3. The moon loves to reflect the sunlight.
4. The Moon doesn't emit (give off) light itself, the 'moonlight' we see is actually the Sun's light reflected off the lunar surface. So, as the Moon orbits the Earth, the Sun lights up different parts of it, making it seem as if the Moon is changing shape.
