The Silver Road (Monday Poem)

by Hamish Hendry
 
 
Last night I saw a Silver Road
Go straight across the Sea;
And quick as I raced along the Shore,
That quick Road followed me.

It followed me all round the Bay,
Where small Waves danced in tune;
And at the end of the Silver Road
There hung a Silver Moon.

A large round Moon on a pale green Sky,
With a Pathway bright and broad;
Some night I shall bring that Silver Moon
Across that Silver Road!
