IN THE EYES OF THE MOON

In the eyes of the moon

I see the calmness of the sea

I see beauty of the world as the night drift

The street dark with tiny crystal sparkling up to the sky

I can feel the whispers of the wind

Death and spirit resting by the chapel

I see life everywhere and can sense love from afar

I see traffic on the bridge and hear the baby crying in the dark

I see it raining in Africa and the crop waiting for the sun

I see a ship sailing through the pacific from dusk to dawn

I see family praying and thankful to God for a graceful day

I see the flowers in the garden and a dog baking in the park

I see a couple walking home holding hands

I see the evening fading away,

My eyes deemed after a night long awake

For in my heart I treasure the world God created

And giving me eyes it beauty to see
