By The Light Of The Moon

By The Light Of The Moon

A Poem by Jeff Bresee

I sometimes sit awake at night

unsure what I should do,

swimming through my thoughts

yeah, all the worries of the day. 

I guess I like the solitude,

although I’m feeling blue

there in the quiet moonlight 

softly, God opens the way. 

 

In dim of night he reassures,

a peace rests in the air. 

The things I want to worry of,

they simply melt away,

replaced by visions of what most times 

I am unaware. 

It makes me want transcend time

and in that moment stay. 

 

But soon it’s time for sleep, 

in parting, God assures one thing - 

that amidst all the toil and strife 

he’ll be returning soon. 

I drift off without care of what

the next day’s going bring, 

blessed by what I felt and learned…

by the light of the moon.
