“I’ll hide my face!” says Moon, says she,
“Sun will think I’m gone.”
“Now where is Moon,” says Sun, says he,
“to shine my light upon?”
Several minutes then go by…
How soon will Moon appear?
Says Moon, “How I enjoy this dark
Celestial atmosphere!”
It’s all because the earth has flown
Between the moon and sun.
But wait a second! There’s a slice
Of Moon for everyone.
