Until the Moon Apologizes

I am dipping into these soupy stars 
with my little celestial ladle.
New born stars rest while
being rocked lightly in the cradle.

I want to experience every new stars song, 
I want it to blow me away--

I want to wear their song like a sweater,
and have it stitched into the fabric of my day.

Makes me want to ride the breeze
above these primitive prizes...

and drift off on a brief eclipse
until the moon apologizes.

Farewell to the passion,
the moon, the diamond wine.
Hello to my future,
you're mine, all mine!

The third verse is so wonderful. If only we could simply put on a sweater to feel the joys in life..sigh. All great lines, Red.
