A Letter To The Moon Poem by Ailbhe Eighteen

I was with the moon last night,
I'm with him again tonight;
With all the glittering dots beside;
Lavishing me with delight;
We dance in their thrones all night,
Yet they were there up high,
I am here just not nigh.


May I voyage to the moon,
Take me there with you;
Let me gaze closely like when I'm in bed;
Let me know your secrets;
Let me run with you in the dark;
Let me see you,
Let me see you.

May we have a talk all night,
When my pillow cannot rivet my tears;
When my blanket cannot warmth my frame;
When my bed cannot hold me;
When all this world makes me cry;
May I stare at you closely,
No, may you take me there,
May I come to you.
