The Moon's Song

"Fly me to the moon and let me play among 
the stars (and butterflies,) fill my heart with 
song and let me sing forevermore . . . " 

                           Based on lyrics by- Frank Sinatra


In the middle of the night,
among stars of veiled crystallite;
I float in a dream of airy delight.
Oh, the shades of dark hued night,
lit by the peaceful moonlight;
where butterflies dance !

When the butterflies dance, 
the stars begin to flicker and prance;
it happens all by happenstance.
Oh, the purple and blue butters' dance,
as I listen in a lovely trance;
to moon's song !

To the moon's song,
where butterflies kiss stars all night long;
gathering in whirling throngs.
Oh, listen, listen to the moon's night song,
floating and drifting I tagalong;
singing moon's song !
