Moondance
Glistening ripples on the gentle breeze
Reflect a gleaming milky beam
The darkest night�s only illumination
Radiant, yet delicate in its creation

Across the water an imaginary path
Leads to her wandering wayward heart
She dances away with daylight�s dawning
Vanishing without a word of warning

Yet, still again at daylight�s end
She reappears like a long lost friend
Lighting the heavens for a weary world
Her brilliant, luminous flag unfurled

The radiant moon so high above
Shines her face on us in peace and love
Her shimmering rays ever so bright
Earth�s cosmic sentinel till morning light
