At sunset there was once left
Only the dark of the night
But on this night there is something new
A sliver of white light in the sky
Beautiful and mysterious
I meditate upon this and sleep
Dreaming of the sun
_
In the next night I look to the sky
The light as grown and gives more to me
I gaze upon her and wonder at her
From where comes her light?
Why does it shine now upon me?
Though I regret the night’s passing
I sleep and dream of the sun
_
Every night the light grows
She favors me with a smile
Though she always smiles, I feel blessed
I gaze long into the light
And so she seems to gaze into me
We do not speak, but something is shared
I sleep and dream of the sun
-
I feel more drawn to the light
Each night she is more lovely
Mysterious, yet familiar to me
I gaze long into the light
And call into the sky to ask her name
“I am the Moon” comes her answer
This night I sleep dreamlessly
-
In this night I see her fully
A perfect circle in the sky
Once so mysterious, she now is laid bare
It is the glory of the sun
Reflected to my admiring eye
Though the night is soon to end
I sleep and dream of the Moon
-
With each moonrise my heart softly aches
She is less radiant than the sun
Yet more beautiful to behold
Her light is soft and cool to guide
Never blinding or burning
It now is she that my dreams are made of
Forevermore I sleep and dream of the moon
