Moonlight Romance Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Moonlight Romance

It was in Peru
And the moon was full
Working long hours, I went early
To bed and didn`t see the moon that often
I had gone ashore where I met Maria in a bar
We walked down to the beach
Sat on an upturned rowing boat looking at Luna
Naturally we made love on satin sand
Slept entwined
She walked back to the bar I walked onboard
Happy and thinking how wonderful life was
Five days later I needed an injection of penicillin.
