The moon an off-white
orb,
High in a blueberry shaded sky.
Casting a magical glow,
For evening has now drawn nigh.
The air is warm and soothing,
Bright stars twinkle and shine.
Silhouettes upon the water,
Of the fragrant trees of pine.
Beneath a sky of blue,
Along with the wind we float.
Sailing sapphire waters,
Together in our little sailboat.
We sit upon the bow,
With the sails standing tall.
And along with the gentle breeze,
Quietly and slowly we crawl.
Over by the water's edge,
There lazily bathes a crane.
Overhead a darkened cloud,
Gives the illusion that it may rain.
Wafting into the night,
Breathing in the freshness of the air.
Left far behind our worries,
As we glide without a care.
Moonlight dreams within our heads,
As the wind so gently blows.
We could drift forevermore,
Following the river wherever it goes.
Off the shore in the distance,
Through windows lights do peep.
They go out one by one,
As people lay their heads to sleep.
The water laps against the shore,
As we go along our way.
The rippling gentle waves,
A serene song they do play.
A piece of Heaven here on earth,
No closer could we be.
Carried away with the wind,
Together just you and me.
Such peace and tranquility,
No words could describe.
Sapphire calm waters,
That we sail upon and glide.
A place of serenity for the soul,
The moon our way it lights.
As we sail into moonlight dreams,
And,
Blueberry Nights
