I'Ve Traveled 'Cross a Faultless Moon

I’VE TRAVELED ‘CROSS A FAULTLESS MOON I’ve traveled ‘cross a faultless moon And trod on laughter tickled cheeks Where craters mar the surface not But on whose gentle slopes Sunrise softly sleeps. I’ve gazed upon a beaming moon And seen the fire in luminous eyes While minstrelling stars serenade her Athwart the endless night When sunlight sadly dies. I’ve walked upon a lucid moon And journeyed ‘cross supple seas of opal, Down rifts and valleys not touched by time. Over the curious mountain So young and yet so noble. I’ve looked upon a radiant moon Flying high above the Earth, so grand, Like Pegasus, but wingless, Swooping ever carefully To artfully eclipse the land.
