I love it when the moon is full
And everything is light.
I feel its strong, relentless pull
And hardly sleep all night.
Instead, I’ll either lie awake
And let my mind run free
Or, else, get out of bed and make
Myself a cup of tea.
Of course, I know that I’ll be tired
And yawn throughout the day,
Yet, given that that’s how I’m wired,
I see no other way.
And, when the moon is on the wane,
I’ll get a good night’s sleep, again.
