Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 The Friendly Moon

It is a nighttime walk I take,

And pause to see the city lights

In bright reflection 'cross the lake,

Humankind made to light the nights.

And then I see the moon above,

Though dimmed some by clouds and by trees,

A nature made light that I love,

Always putting my mind at ease,

That most of nights through which I live,

From my beginning to my end,

When looking up, the moon will give

Me assurance like an old friend.

The moon does always shine on me

Wherever I happen to be.
