Sunshine On the Moon

Sunshine on the Moon A moon at the crest of a hill, As big as the house it was covering, Neighbors gathered – strangers and old, In moonbeams fearfully hovering. Never was there such a moon, Through my lifetime of many years, Un-believing so awed we were, Breathless, still, evoking shared stunned tears. Never will I forget that night when This old world rolled around just right And sunshine seemed to inflate the moon Truly heaven’s wonder gone too soon.
