Kiss the Moon

by Brittany Blankenship

Oh when I hear the pine boughs sigh

Or see the clouds that dance and play

O're fields that glisten with the light

That, laughing, dares to capture day, I dream a dream that captures me

Like the moon that holds the sun

While winking stars look on with glee.

This dream 1 sought now holds me fast

And binds my heart to its sad end,

For no sweet dream will last for long

While clinging hope the truth will bend.

Abandoning - 'twill still possess -

It mocks me with its lonely wind,

What once was magical caress.

But now I see the glimmer faint;

The golden breath and faithful dawn

Of One that comes to rescue me

And carry me to love beyond

To dance and dabble in the light,

So that I too may kiss the moon

And bid "Farewell, forever, night!"
