The Misguiding Moonbeam.

Smile and simmer, pretty moon, Watch ms tender lovers spoon. Don’t you often hear them make Promises you know they’ll break? How they love to look at you As they softly bill and coo. Filling all their future skies Full of tender hopes and sighs. But when they are joined as one, Then with moonlight skies they've doue; For to them you then become . 1 Just a little bit humdrum. It is no doubt very true Lovers may subsist on you; ~ But how sad that when they wed, 'Fbcti the must have bread.
