Old time moon



Old time moon
Casting a shadow
In the corner of my room
On my pillows


Through those dreamy eyes
The lake was surrounded by willows
Who tossed a pebble from behind me
Breaking the silence
Making ripples


A School aged girl
Learned the word "sorrow"
From a story book
She had to return tomorrow


What happened to people in that story
She couldn't remember
What happened to old time moon
Still there
