A Waltz With the Moon

Last night upon a silver sea

The moon came down and danced with me.

He swept me up and over craters

Like a graceful figure skater.

“My beams can’t shine as bright as thee,

My lover when you gaze at me.”

He whispered words of love and light,

He kept me safe, so big and bright.

In deepest dark I felt no fear,

As long as Moon, my Moon was near.

All through the night we spun and swirled,

We felt as though we ruled the world.

Past glowing stars we carried on

Embracing ‘till the break of dawn.

Until the bustling city started,

We said goodbye so brokenhearted.

Am I moonstruck? Yes, I swoon,

For love of the man, the man in the moon.

When I wake, they say I dreamed it.

Moon, if you’re listening, I really mean it.
