A Farm Boy Smiles at the Moon; the Moon Smiles Back
A child smiles at the moon; the moon smiles back
For they are friends, you see, both peek-a-boo
Behind and through the leaves of their favorite oak
In an ancient world that is forever young
Adults are children who have forgotten how
To see, and who have lost their bearings, their course
Their pirate-maps for sailing to the stars
And their lunar love-letters to be read in dreams
Among the fireflies, on the cooling-dusk field
A child smiles at the moon; the moon smiles back
