Beneath the August Moon

Every cloud was lined in a silvery dust
The sky was illuminated in a heavenly glow
The ripples on the water shimmered in the moonlight
For a few short hours all the world was aglow

My cheeks were damp with happiness
My heart was so full, content in love.
And an angel held me safely, wrapped in his arms,
As we bathed in the moonlight that shown from above.
