THE MOON PATH
IF I could walk along the path
The moonlight makes upon the sea,
I know that I should find the one
Who sings the Silver Song to me.
THE RING CHARM
I HAVE a little charm
A gypsy gave to me,
To keep me safe from harm,
So ugly things can't see
When I am all alone.
It keeps the 'Fraid all out
When trees cry so, and moan,
And throw their leaves about.
It keeps away the Woops that creep
About my bed when I'm asleep.
And even by day my charm keeps anything
From hurting me, and that is why
I love my gypsy-ring
More than the ones I buy.
The gypsy put it on for me
And said some words so strange
I knew that they must be
Some fairy charm to change
The sad things into gay,
And keep me safe and well.
I wear it every day,
For that's to keep the spell.
Each morning when I wake,
I kiss and turn my ring
Three times for sake of luck
These wishes bring.
