MOONLIGHT NIGHT The moonlight struck upon her face Enlightening mood with show of grace A silhouette of form and dream That captured love where dark had been The night was one of magic call Filled by rays that seldom fall To give a treat that God did share The flood of moonlight everywhere A different mood of feel it gave That changed the thought and ways behave It gave our time a different chance A new appeal and new romance The sun of night had filled the sky And by its light we played on by Enjoying mood that love had made Until its end and all did fade |

A different mood of feel it gave That changed the thought and ways behave It gave our time a different chance A new appeal and new romance ... The sun of night...indeed... Expert poets make the moon shine... Thank you for this one.... |

Awww! When moonglow burns cool and white, warms night in reflections bright and warmer touch finds sparks delight, 'tis brief the hours which and wane while tender secrets smile, remain. Loved this one, Rick! ~KL |
