    It's a marvellous night for a Moondance
    With the stars up above in your eyes
    A fantabulous night to make romance
    Neath the cover of October skies....

    The Cheese Moon

    I've heard it said by many around,
    That the moon is made of cheese they found.
    It's mined by little spacemen mice,
    Who sell it for a handsome price.

    The cheese we eat all comes from there,
    From cheddar valleys beyond compare.
    And in the rivers of Wensleydale,
    The mice scoop cheese in metal pails.

    If you peek up you might just see,
    The Gorgonzola heights of Ghee.
    And to the left and up a bit,
    On Stilton mountains mice do sit.

    So next time you sit down to cheese,
    Remember the mice on Parmezan seas.
    Who work non stop in their spacemen hats,
    Just glad that they're out of reach of cats!

    A small mention of the moon in this, but definately worth a listen.

    Silver


    Slowly, silently, now the moon
    Walks the night in her silver shoon;
    This way, and that, she peers, and sees
    Silver fruit upon silver trees;
    One by one the casements catch
    Her beams beneath the silvery thatch;
    Couched in his kennel, like a log,
    With paws of silver sleeps the dog;
    From their shadowy coat the white breasts peep
    Of doves in a silver-feathered sleep;
    A harvest mouse goes scampering by,
    With silver claws, and silver eye;
    And moveless fish in the water gleam,
    By silver reeds in a silver stream. - Walter de la Mare
