Ships In the Moonlight

The ships are out in the river The moon surely shines over their heads Slowly a mist comes across them Sways boats about, moving them forward The moon keeps enough light around It merely beams, glowing on the boats Now the night holds forth a true form Allowing boats to see in the dark
