MOON VOYAGES

Oh, tonight will you go sailing with me
on voyages around our shining moon?
We’ll wave across the Sea of Clouds, and see
bright stars above us. We’ll carry a tune
over the Sea of Cold, and ask our moms
to love us, keeping us warm with a song.
If you like, we’ll sleep tight in our pajams
as we float in our boat around the long
Sea of Tranquility. The Sea of Rains
surely can serve as our morning shower.
When thirsty we can drink time and again
from the sweet Sea of Nectar. What power
must tower over the Sea of Storms! We
might prefer the Sea of Serenity’s
shore, where we can dine on cookies and tea!
