Moonlit Shores
Wandreth alone upon thy moonlit shores
lost and forlorn without my love
How deeply my desire for she
To see her face aglow in your light
No longer can I touch thy shore
This weakened man must rest.
Thy light guides me high upon a dune
a clearing between two mounts
o’ that they were her breasts
Resteth I between
nestled in warmth
protected from the wind’s chill
On high thy full moon as be I
sits nestled between a circle of clouds
My love afar I see nestled in another’s arms
Each our own lives have we
another’s arms embrace us
Yet to each mortal
another side be
That which we find
after having what we found
Ignore this love not can we
’tis as precious as thy loving light
When the moon is full
I am with my love
though afar I feel her presence
Though we be in another’s arms
we gazeth upward to thy light
this moon lights both our skies
all at once
we are in each other’s arms
