~ Moonlight Bay ~

Memories bring back to me
Starlit nights and moonlit sea
While a boat at anchor lay
In a little land-locked bay

The heady scent of lilac trees
Reached us on the gentle breeze
And the murmur of the rills
From the dark, encircling hills

And upon that night in June
Oh, how brightly shone the moon
With another moon, her daughter
Replicated in the water

Never shall the night again
Hold the magic it did then
And never shall so bright a moon
Shine upon a night in June

Youth sees life with happy eyes
We were young and none too wise
June is something to remember
In the darkness of November....

Love, love, love this. I really like the moon in June parts, reminding me of a poem I wrote long ago. And the depth in the last stanza was perfect, in bringing a conclusion to the poem.
