Move Over Moon Poem by John F. McCullagh

Move Over Moon



Move over Moon-
You’ve been displaced,
And it’s not some Star
That took your place.

Nor is a rose by another name
slipping in to steal your fame.
Their day is done
and none too soon.

Henceforth lovers who wish to swoon
must not rely upon the Moon, .
must not invoke the mystic rose
musr not implore the Northern star

Love needs the help of a guitar:
Beneath your lovers’ window stand
and strum a chord with practiced hand.
Sing your love a haunting tune: :

which might include a mystic rose
which might invoke the Northern Star
which might implore the lovers’ moon.

It seems I've spoken way too soon.
