Too Soon , Moon orWhere’s the Moon?
When the sun gets in front of the moon
you can feel the heat on your face,
and just when you think it’s cool
the moon light slips away again.
- the sun
heat brings the cold ember to a fire again
too soon.
Cause you know it’s not supposed to happen that way.
The sun burns – you learn.
The moon returns umber
then runs, walks, slips away
Too
Another moon, is it worth keeping?
