Across the Cameroons

A giant red moon appears every seven years 
Over blue lakes and shallow lagoons 
Over faithful flocks of yodeling loons 
Over the peaceful shores and white dunes
Across the Cameroons 
You can hear the tune of the yodeling loon. 
every seven years under the giant red moon.

Mike, just lovely. To me, it says: a serene, almost mystical journey through nature's untouched beauty, leaving one feeling deeply connected to the earth's rhythms and mysteries. The recurring melody of the yodeling loon under the giant red moon every seven years stirs a deep sense of wonder and timeless continuity. Best wishes, Don
