There’s a moon in my room. Hey, I’m not kidding. There is! And some stars too.
A few years ago we had a nephew living with us for a while. We gave him the bedroom at the end of the hall on the front side of the house. He discovered a potential business to get into where he’d paint stars and galaxies on ceilings with a special paint. It was special paint because you can’t see it in the daytime. But at night, when you turn out the lights…after they’ve been on for a bit…you can lie down in the bed and look up…and the ceiling looks like the night sky.
It’s very cool. We liked it so much that when we repainted that bedroom this year, we left the ceiling alone and bought wall paint that went well with it. So, even though it’s been a few years since the ceiling was magically painted, you can still see that…
There’s a moon in my room…
And the light is in my eyes.
It came in through the window
Just as soft as lullabies.
There’s a smile on its face
As it floats up on the wall.
I love the way it flitters
Without any sound at all.
And I’d love to fly up there,
With the moon, into the sky.
But the sandman just stopped in…
So, for now, I must say “bye”. © 2013 TF
