I'Ve Traveled 'Cross a Faultless Moon

I’VE TRAVELED ‘CROSS A FAULTLESS MOON

			I’ve traveled ‘cross a faultless moon
			And trod on laughter tickled cheeks
			Where craters mar the surface not
			But on whose gentle slopes
			Sunrise softly sleeps.

			I’ve gazed upon a beaming moon
			And seen the fire in luminous eyes
			While minstrelling stars serenade her
			Athwart the endless night
			When sunlight sadly dies.

			I’ve walked upon a lucid moon
			And journeyed ‘cross supple seas of opal,
			Down rifts and valleys not touched by time.
			Over the curious mountain
			So young and yet so noble.

			I’ve looked upon a radiant moon
			Flying high above the Earth, so grand,
			Like Pegasus, but wingless,
			Swooping ever carefully
			To artfully eclipse the land.
