Call her moonchild
Dancing in the shallows of a river Lovely moonchild Dreaming in the shadow of the willow.
Talking to the trees of the
cobweb strange Sleeping on the steps of a fountain Waving silver wands to the night-birds song Waiting for the sun on the mountain.
She's a moonchild Gathering the flowers in a garden. Lovely moonchild Drifting on the echoes of the hours.
Sailing on the wind
in a milk white gown Dropping circle stones on a sun dial Playing hide and seek with the ghosts of dawn Waiting for a smile from a sun child.
