An Ode To the Moon

An Ode to the Moon By Elton Camp Oh lovely moon so shiny and bright Many lovers you will inspire tonight They gaze at you, get filled with desire When two hearts so wildly are set afire Though the object that they look upon Is lifeless, dusty and as dry as a bone But thoughts of this there is no trace As they admire your pock-marked face See that crater lying right over there It’s rugged and totally devoid of air Though lovers admire what they see A place of death the moon would be Very fitting symbol of human love Is this object that hangs far above It has a dark side that they didn’t see After marriage, the lovers will agree
