A Walk Beneath The Heavens
There was a time not long ago
When the moon was high
And a comet put on a show
Streaking across the sky
It was a special time for sure
With Venus shining too
And the dippers also there
And cancer that I knew
Walking there that summer night
I felt that I belonged
There below the guiding lights
As I went along
My navigation was the best
From my days as scout
I had my trusty compass too
As I went about
I was there well prepared
For all that could go wrong
And the whip-poor-will sang ‘round there
As I went along
When I turned to go back
I let myself be tired
And as the night became the dawn
The heavens there expired
