    Feeling the moonlight

    I sometimes wonder to myself
    Does not the moon get lonely?
    To be sitting up there in the night
    Looking down, so bright and lovely

    He must be looking at our cities
    Electric lights, like small stars twinkle
    I think he must be getting jealous
    As our fireworks sparkle

    And then I see it; the little game
    He plays with the clouds, his friends
    A childish game of hide and seek
    As tranquility ascends

    And there she is! the lovely star
    Like a diamond in the sky
    She shines so sweetly, bright and young
    The jewel of his eye

    The fireworks stop, but the sky still shines
    The moon so full and bright
    And not one, not two, but a billion stars
    They make the black go white!

    He’s not alone, he makes it known
    To my wonderful delight
    I just sit and take in all the beauty
    While feeling the moonlight.
