"Ebony Moon," a Poem by James Evans

Ebony Moon

by James Evans

 

Fields a’ Laughin’

Young man croons

stars a’ moanin’

‘Round that Ebony Moon

 

Lilacs smell

so sweet

sweet

In the midnight heat

 

Fireflies glow

Bright

Near the porch

Video Light

 

While balloon carryin’

lunatics dance

Lightly Lightly

Ever so politely

under that

Old Ebony Moon
