Dancing Under the Harvest Moon
Beneath the moon, bright and high,
Joyful feet tap as stars fly by.
Laughter echoes through the night,
Traditions shine in golden light.
Mid-Autumn calls with songs and cheer,
Harvest time draws loved ones near.

Dancing through the moonlit day.
Hopes rise high with every spin,
Celebration flows within.
Hands held tight, they twirl around,
Festive joy in every sound.

Casting warmth into the night.
Silent wishes, hopes so pure,
Sent aloft with hearts secure.

Like the shimmer of a star.
Each small flame, a quiet prayer,
Floating free without a care.

Casting light on waves until
Ripples dance with silver grace,
Touching all in quiet space.

Carried on the gentle tide.
Stars look down from skies above,
Guiding dreams with lasting love.
Mirrored light upon the shore,
Echoes peace forevermore.
