Analyzing Imagery and Tone in Poetry

Read the following poem carefully:

In the morning light, the waning moon,
Hangs like a whispered secret, still and pale.
Soft dew kisses the petals' bloom,
In a garden where dreams inhabit the trail.

In a well-structured essay, analyze how the author's use of imagery and tone contributes to the overall meaning of the poem. Consider specific elements such as word choice, figurative language, and the arrangement of ideas. Use evidence from the text to support your analysis.
