Prayer to the Moon

This is sweet and dreamy, just like the fair moon.

Man on the moon,

How fair thee this night?

The heavens are a-glow,

The land is asleep.

Watching over us all,

Guardian of our dreams,

Your lover is calling -

Won’t you answer her, please?

Keeper of Wishes,

Lord of the Skies,

Summer is waning,

Peace is ending,

And the armies are marching.

Oh King of Prayers,

Hear my cries!

Protect my lover

As he marches in the fall.

Please, Greatest of all Immortals,

Do as I ask thee.

I have little gold or money -

I offer you my soul

In exchange for the safe-

Keeping of my lover.

Oh, please do not let him die!

He is the light in the dark,

The hope in my heart;

Without him...

Oh I don’t know where to start!

I ask you this favour,

And offer you anything...

If only you’ll protect him...

Oh please answer my cries!

This is an older one, tell me what you honestly think.

It's extraordinary �

The love� the desperation � the intense pray. You must be one talented writer, to combine tease things so harmoniously :).

Cheers x 1000
