Ghost Moon Through the Trees

Shhhh,
There’s a ghost in the sky tonight
Hiding out behind the trees
Silently drifting on the wind
Like a ship on coal black seas.

Hush,
It’s waiting out there in the black,
Ling’ring just outside my room;
Hovering at the edge of sight
Wrapped in a foreboding gloom.

Shhhh,
There’s a ghost in the sky tonight
Peering down through the dark trees;
Breathing down the back of my neck
In a muggy, summer breeze.
