Analysis of Tripping over Moonbeams
Tripping up the moonbeams
I whispered I love you
Singing forth of raindrops
Longing though I do
Metered out deliverance
Of such simple sighs
Dancing dewdrops
the light in your eyes
Walking through the revelry
Of the sleeping glade
The star's light flickering
With wishes to be made
Drooping mystic mists
Sweep over you and me
Lost in it's grips
Found in fantasy
