Analysis of Night to day
Tracy Mcfayden 1965 (Hull)
Bright golden moon,
Behind the clouds,
Between the stars,
In the black of night,
Suspended in the sky,
So close yet so far,
Coming every night,
Leaving by dawns early light,
The sun appearing,
Sun and moon pass each other,
One dark one light,
Will they ever meet?,
Then ....... The eclipse comes,
Sun and moon come together,
All to soon they part,
Like lovers,
Lost in time and space never to unite.
