Moonstruck
In total awe he tries to touch the magnificent crescent moon
for he had heard a man lived there and yearned to see him soon
head held high he searched the sky for that Man in the Moon the boy did espy
he was sat astride the moon up above
whilst swinging his legs sprinkling moonbeams of love
a wink of an eye for the boy to espy, with dreams one day of flying up high
the boy now an Astronaut the cosmos he explores
a welcome wave from the Man in the Moon as daily his spaceship soars
