Full Moon

One night as Dick lay half asleep,
   Into his drowsy eyes
A great still light begins to creep
   From out the silent skies.
It was lovely moon's, for when
   He raised his dreamy head,
Her surge of silver filled the pane
   And streamed across his bed.
So, for a while, each gazed at each -
   Dick and the solemn moon -
Till, climbing slowly on her way,
   She vanished, and was gone.
