This poem's lyrics have been sung by different groups and there are serveral versions of it and a few videos of the song at youtube. Ryan Lucas wrote the melody and is the singer of my lyrics.

Here  is one version of it.

Listen to the song at the link above on youtube. Sorry I can't figure out any way to put the song tune in this box Just as the moon rises each night and even as snow is caressed by its light, then glowing, I'll rise, becoming your dawn, your curved sleeping form to smile upon. With eyes like bright stars, I then will embrace the landscape of you, each small line on your face. And surely you’ll mirror my worshiping glow, for I am your moon and you are my snow. I’ll keep shining down with each breath you take. May I blaze in your dreams before you awake. And softly I’ll whisper, “Keep sleeping, my dear.” Your faithful beloved, I’ll always be here.

Hmmm, that's strange. You have to give it a few seconds to load but I was able to get it to work. The original song without video is so beautiful, but now I cannot locate where i put that info! thanks, glad you like the lyrics

oh I just remember. I also have the song "That Potent Urge" my funny song. I think that one also might be here at Soup with the music. I will have to check that out.

yep, I have one other song that a kind person at Soup made into a song for me, but it got removed from youtube although I do have a file of him singing the song. I have been lucky to have had two people offer to write music for lyrics of mine. I kow Maria here on Soup does it for people here too. I am really surprised if none of her work has shown up on the winners' list.

Wow. Thanks so much. I love for people to see again what Ryan created for music to go with this poem.

i rest my case....this is absolutely gorgeous....but you are quite correct about the music biz...you have to hustle, pray for lucky connections, iffy people, and look like Alice Cooper, why Emily Dickinson's poem "I'm Nobody! Who are you?" means so much to me

Andrea, 'And surely you’ll mirror my worshiping glow, for I am your moon and you are my snow.' Lovely Serenade from yesterday's eyes. Inspiration for so many more. -Richard

I thought I had commented on this one before, but I guess not. I know I have heard the song and watched the video! Was your honeymoon in winter? We were snowed in with two blizzards on our honeymoon in a little cabin. It was so quaint and perfect, this poem reminds me of those wonderful days. A fave for me!
