American Words are crude tools, but with a simple hammer and chisel a beautiful artwork can be made
To sail across the moonlit sky Through the mist, clouds and fog Amongst the coursing moonbeam sea Along the starry night above, Treetops billow, bend and break As seaweed dance beneath the waves Row and row upon the waters Of speckled sky and shining luna Sails full with cool night breeze Course set by airy currents The seafloor comes alive with beasts Darting across the leaf strewn paths Upon the horizon, a storm does swell Lightning flashes in the ocean below Winds strengthen, clouds rush onward Rocky sailing upon greying skies As the moonlight washes away in the rain From the stormy sea within the sky The storm calms as dawn grows near The seas fall as blue sunlight breaks The stars wink out their goodbyes As moonset brings a new day’s work The ship makes land beneath the sheets While we all rise from out dream filled sleep
