The Daylight Moon by Kathleen Ahearn

 

Have you ever gazed on a full daylight moon?

It’s different, like a huge white balloon

That takes your mind on a calming trip 

Caressing you gently in its grip

 

To ponder the things you cannot see

To taste of life as it ought to be

Where all is love and everything is sweet

With everyone you happen to meet

 

Where sunshine abounds amid sprinkles of rain

Where nothing hurts, where there is no pain

Where decent shelter, clothing and food

Are had by all, and all life is good

 

Here people smile greeting each other

Forgiveness lives on in love of brother

Here hearts dance free as they flutter by

For beauty shines bright in the stunning sky

 

Oh fly with me to this great, white balloon

To bask in the spell of the daylight moon
