Precious Moments

"To The Moon And Back"

Once, in a blue moon, true love comes along 
Surpassing all limits...growing so strong...
That each beating heart breathes in, the same song. 

I found such a love...the night I met you...
The stars whispered to me, "This love is true!
For you, there is nothing, he would not do."

Each time I asked you to lasso the moon 
And take us both there, to sit, while we spoon 
Within its crest...in a place you had hewn

Aloft on a cloud...that rope made whack. 
We said, "I love you to the moon and back!"
With our hands entwined...this love would not slack. 

We loved with our heart and soul...and we knew
Love's Eternal...even when gone from view...
Gazing at the moon, I see...me and you.

Note:
Final verse not entered d/t confines of length:)

Precious moments...are these. I hold them dear
Looking not for stars...when the moon's so near
Your reflection sparkles in every tear.
