"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." - Ralph Waldo Emerson


Like a pony’s prance

 I felt a lively beat

 Underneath my feet

 Tis’ be the Moonlight Dance


 The fire is starting to crackle

 The children pretending to tackle

 Will it grow dark, no, not a chance

 Tis’ be the Moonlight Dance


 The Moonlight is so bright

 Nearly as bright as the sun

 Making me feel fun

 Shining through the night


 The late night made me tired

 Though the dazzling moon gave light

 And shined throughout the night 

 Brighter than a fire
