A Smile from the Moon

The wind does not know my name
The ripples see my face rough and hewn
And I'm still waiting
For a smile from the moon
.
The robin flew from my shoulder
Tired of hearing my usual tune
And I'm still waiting
For a smile from the moon
.
The rooster does not try to wake me
I rest when I will and I sleep in 'til noon
And I'm still waiting
For a smile from the moon
.
The years are all that I carry
I've nothing to steal for the wily raccoon
And I'm still waiting
For a smile from the moon
.
The clouds have covered my journey
Since I left my sunshine early last June
Because I went chasing
For a smile from the moon
.
The colors fade from the sky
And night will surely be soon
But I'm still waiting
For a smile from the moon
