What a lovely poem! The rhyme scheme and verse structure work to conjure the magic of the hour. Beautifully done! I love all of it, but must mention that owls asking who made me smile.
And this line tripped my reading a bit. a silvery, moonlight-drenched night brings.
A special note on the way you've mentioned the prompt as a dropnote at the beginning, giving the reader the choice when to read it. I read it after I'd enjoyed the poem once just as is. Thank you for the explanation of the rhyme scheme and form. I re-read the poem after reading the note, too.
Suggestion - WritingML! Font, italics, center. Somehow I can visualise this poem in 'times', italics, with a bit more line-spacing.
