Take me to the moon
Folder:
Requiescat in peace TAKE me to the stars, Mummy,
I need to find the moon.
Take me to the highest mountain.
Let me touch the clouds.
I need to see, to hear, to touch.
I need to find the moon.
Please, Mummy, take me to the stars.
I need to find the moon.
Take me to a cliff, sheer rock,
So I may smell the sea.
Let me fly with a gull's grace
Down to the mighty waves.
I need to see, to hear, to touch.
I need to find the moon.
Please, Mummy, take me to the stars.
I need to find the moon.
Take me to a forest, Mummy.
I need to breathe the air.
Give me eyesight of a tiger searching for its prey.
I need to see, to hear, to touch.
I need to find the moon.
Please, Mummy, take me to the stars.
I need to find the moon.

For she had found the moon.

Thank you kindly.
This is one of my few scratchings I don't automatically hate. Maybe it was the simplicity and not trying so hard to emulate my heroes.
Alliswend bin ich nicht, doch vie list mir bewußt.
And this is good that it has
And this is good that it has not been expunged as many earlier works are destined to be despatched.
