Forest Moon

They call it the forest moon
It sings in the night sky

To some it's a solemn tune
To some of dreams miles high

It orchestrates shadows with light
Striking a path through the sleeping trees

It's light is that of the night
It's call emanates to you in the unseen evening breeze

Wild creatures call and sing, respecting the light of the moon
Wilderness hunts and dies in the nights of the moon

Perhaps it connects with our minds?
Perhaps it hears our truths and lies?

Perhaps it gives hope and light to some?
Where otherwise there would be none.
