The Sun Drapes the Earth
The rays leave stars in my sight.
I had slept with the moon
What took in was the night
6 and a quarter miles away from the noon
It gave birth to light
In its embracing rays
The sun drapes the earth
Oh! The romance ended too soon
As I wake up in despair
Of my illicit affairs
The rooster had laid bare the fruits
To the eagerly prude eyes.
