575 Moon (SH 24)
Moon, you are mine, dear
Watch me from the big window
Tuck me in tonight
Mysterious moon
Follow me down the vast hall
Keep me safe from harm
Landscape of empty
Craters, seas, dust, rocks and white
You shine on and on
Soft, grey light through blinds
Blanket me with a vast dream
Shroud me til morning
The moonlight dances
Tulips, daisies, and roses
Bend down to its will
The moon breaks the heat
Bugs come out to play in lights
Frogs sing for summer
Autumn has turned cold
Coating all in ghostly light
The harvest moon rose
Winter brings new moon
The moon rises over snow
Cold and clear is she
