Journeys On The 7.20 Poem by Linda Dobinson

If I were the sun
and you were the moon
I would shine my light
on your sweet face
and you would feel my warmth.

If I were the sun
and you were the moon
no longer would I stand still,
your love would make me spin.

If I were the sun
and you were the moon
no rain would ever fall on us
the way it does on little Earth.

If I were the sun
and you were the moon
nothing could ever keep us apart,
not even the Earth itself.

If I were the sun
and you were the moon
we could roam the universe
and the un-crosses stars
would light up our path.

If I were the sun and you were the moon.

But I am not the sun
and you are not the moon.
We are just two people
in separate orbits.
Our worlds touch daily but softly,
so softly that you do not feel it.

I am not the sun
and you are not the moon.
So I will have to dream
starry dreams of our journey
through the universe
and all the things
we would see and feel
if I were the sun
and you were the moon.
