The Night Visitor

I woke up at twelve In the middle of the night All right around me The strangest of lights I went to the window And there just outside A man was there looking A wink in his eye He beckoned me forward I walked in a spell No sense of some danger No fear I could tell The wind seemed to pick up Am swept off my feet Am carried along now With clouds for a seat My life in a trance now, My body weighs nought The stars that are shining Beam out like a torch The glitter of stardust With a life of its own Lights up the night sky I’m not here alone Slowly so gently The wind gives a puff I land in the curl Of a shiny white cuff I lift up my head now And there right above That man with the wink A smile that shows love I sit there in wonder I’m safe and cocooned I call out my greeting “Hello Mr. Moon”
