Drifting On a Moonlit Night

Drifting on a moonlit night My mind and I lay peacefully The pearl filled sky still shimmers so With sands of sleep for me to see Serenity of thought prevails My eyes aflutter into sleep As memory again regales A treasure trove for me to keep Drifting on a moonlit night As close to you as I can be For in this giddy dreamlike state Your face I will forever see On nights like this, the world is still And smiles that only elsewhere shine Can yet illuminate in love To linger in this heart of mine

The moon has always been an inspiration for poets to write of love and romance and you were well inspired Mike. Hope your day is going well. Tom
