Not Even Not Zen 243: Moonshine

You Are My Moonshine
by Secret Hippie for Diane, Valentines Day 2022

You are my moonshine,
My lovely moonshine.
You grace my lips and
Take pains away.
You’ll never know dear
How bright you’re blazing
How you turn my nighttime to day.

The other night dear
As I was walking
I thought I glimpsed you among the stars.
You made the clouds glow.
Your voice was silver.
I felt warmth from the love that was ours.

You are my moonshine,
My lovely moonshine.
You grace my lips and
Take pains away.
You’ll never know dear
How bright you’re blazing
How you turn my nighttime to day.

When love is waxing
And bodies waning
I see you clearly, your spirit gleams
You lift the chalice
of love's elixer
and I drink from the cup of moonbeams.

You are my moonshine,
My lovely moonshine.
You grace my lips and
Take pains away.
You’ll never know dear
How bright you’re blazing
How you turn my nighttime to day.

You are my moonshine,
My lovely moonshine.
You make me happy
In every way.
You’ll never know dear
How bright your love glows
Please don't take my moonshine away

Please don't take my moonshine away
Please don't take my moonshine away
