Pale tendrils of light
Gently caressing my cheek
Tuck me in at night

Peering through the tree
Lighting the path to sleepland
She watches one sleep

Doesn't need to run
It just follows our car home
Ensures a safe return

The face of the moon
Smiling, laughing, or scolding
I really can't tell

The author's comments:
Sometimes I compose these in my head to fall asleep, because the moon sometimes appears right outside my window.
