Moonchild Ballad By Lyn

Her moonchild ballad so heartfelt and warm
the voice of an angel, lifting my heart
I am captivated and intrigued 
my imagination parades through meadows and mountains

she is singing in a language I do not know
yet my soul understands completely
There is a tenderness that is precious
A bit of a lament, a love poem

She is singing to her lover, 
assuring him that she will always know him
Through past lives, and future incarnations.
Her notes caress my ears, assuring me of her love

An incredible gift, you have Lyn, 
An angelic voice. It is prettier than harps.
I listen and I learn, transmogrifying myself into a butterfly
flitting from note to note, enjoying the view.

Another nice write, Caren. Earlier, you said Shakespeare was way over your head. Check this out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxqXN7umwN0
