Moonlight Poem by Toni Atchison

Moonlight sets me wandering
to places I have dreamed.
With emerald skies
and ruby grass,
and everything between.
Moonlight sets me dancing
under crystal velvet stars,
to symphonies of wind and rain
and sunsets in your eyes.
Alas the moonlight never lasts
and day comes far too soon.
But wander again I'll go tonight
guided by the moon.
