In the still of the night A Pale Moon casts its light It comes and goes, goes and comes Like it is playing with us as it safely guides us home One minute the Moon is there to be seen, in its fullest glory The next hidden behind a cloud, like it’s a character acting out its own story The moonlight is just bright enough to guide us home Letting us know as we walk in the dark that we are not alone We walk and talk, holding hands, laughing with our friends The Moon continues its game of hide and seek, dipping behind the clouds It is not long before it’s back taking a peep, ensuring our safe-keep Guiding us safely home, to our houses in the street, once there were street lights to guide us home Now I’m glad to say that conserving energy means you are honoured to witness nature coming out to play The Moon tonight is pale and round it looks very small in the sky and its colour is milky white The clouds are shades of white and a little bit of grey I ponder what the clouds will be like tomorrow when the Moon goes in and the Sun comes out to play Will the grey in the clouds disappear, giving way to blue and warmth? Will they darken every hour resulting in a downpour? Nature is perfect in everything it does, wrapping its arms around us all, in one big happy hug © Jackie Mead April 2018

In the still of the Night
In the still of the night A Pale Moon casts its light It comes and goes, goes and comes Like it is playing with us as it safely guides us home One minute the Moon is there to be seen, in its fullest glory The next hidden behind a cloud, like it’s a character acting out its own story The moonlight is just bright enough to guide us home Letting us know as we walk in the dark that we are not alone We walk and talk, holding hands, laughing with our friends The Moon continues its game of hide and seek, dipping behind the clouds It is not long before it’s back taking a peep, ensuring our safe-keep Guiding us safely home, to our houses in the street, once there were street lights to guide us home Now I’m glad to say that conserving energy means you are honoured to witness nature coming out to play The Moon tonight is pale and round it looks very small in the sky and its colour is milky white The clouds are shades of white and a little bit of grey I ponder what the clouds will be like tomorrow when the Moon goes in and the Sun comes out to play Will the grey in the clouds disappear, giving way to blue and warmth?

Great day and night out with friends yesterday and a beautiful walk home along the canal with just the Moon to keep us company, sometimes the simple things in life are all we need
