Good Night Moon

Good night moon
Watch over my sleep
Keep evil spirits
In your shadow
Safe is your light
Shining tonight
Giving delight
Free me from
All sorrow

Pink,
Trust is half the battle...truth is the other half....just need to put 'trust and truth' together like 'moon and earth'....it makes everything work and a good sleep possible.....

Jazz.... what better role than a Goddess for the moon that watches over our sleep....for when it shines for us is mostly at night....right? (Ok lets not get bogged down with physics here...I'm a poet now not a scientist anymore...or a theologist....haha)

Hi Yankee

It is difficult to think of anything that inspires more poetry than the moon. I hope your supplications to the Moon Goddess are granted in full. A nice write.
