The Way the Black Sky Caresses the Moon

The way the black sky caresses the moon It cradles it’s body, so easily swoon The way the black sky , caresses the moon A faint shallow fit, is what it projects It cradles its body, so easily swoon For love has been lost, like autumn steals June As though communication had been scalped, like poor dialect The was the black sky caresses the moon Oh father, please tell me, is your mind truly prude? Or does the moons docile appearance simply follow architect? It cradles its body, so easily swoon The stars with their twinkle, shimmer and ruin All for an audience; simply fooling The way the black sky caresses the moon Solitude, heartache, or a farewell tune Either, or both, fall flat with gold flecks It cradles its body, so easily swoon And so it’s been said, that the tide may rise noon For the Earth holds the key to the stars, which reflect The way the black sky caresses the moon It cradles its body, so easily swoon
