Full Moon, by Walter de la Mare



FULL MOON

One night as Dick lay fast asleep,
     Into his drowsy eyes

A great still light began to creep
     From out the silent skies.

It was the lovely moon's, for when
     He raised his dreamy head,

Her surge of silver filled the pane
     And streamed across his bed.

So, for a while, each gazed at each-
     Dick and the solemn moon-

Till, climbing slowly on her way,
     She vanished, and was gone.

By Walter de la Mare
