Stary Moonlight

Songs of love will be sung at night
Sung in the light of the starry moonlight
Love conquers all or so they say
Better at night though than during the day
Magical moments each moonlit night
Lovers gaze while the moon shines bright
The animals share these moments too
While the moon shines brightly down on you
Nocturnal creatures great and small awake
Looking for food when its there for the take
All gods’ creatures love the moonlight so
The magical moments as they come and go
The werewolves awake with a howling cry
They may be mythical but then I may lie
Vampire bats with their teeth sharp and thin
Looking for a human neck to sink them in
The owl swoops down to catch it’s prey
The moonlight shows the owl the way
Stars are shining with the moon
Dying down as the day breaks soon

Starry nights are so serene and tranquill, it can leave us in a dreamy state we don't want to exit >> James

Those moonlight nights sound too scary to venture out into the night. Keep writing. Sara
