Dorothy Gibbons Poet Free verse

Listen to poem:

Dancing in the moonlight

Walking under the harvest moon
Pitch black ~ so Erie 
But magnificent moon 
Captivated by its beauty
Looking over the water
No street lights~  stars shine bright
How i love the moon and stars
Come walk with me tonight
Dancing in the moonlight
Sigh ~ let it shine forever 
Stars twinkled all over the sky
Like an orchestra playing a symphony 
Perfect moment in time under ~Harvest moon

Lin Lane October 3, 2026 at 2:15 PM I adore everything about your musical presentation, Dotti. Lyrics that find the harvest moon as a glorious vision in Autumn skies. There’s nothing quite as stunning to the eyes as the stars dancing with the moon with music and song provided by our ScottyDotti. ♥️
