Brave Little Melody

I heard you hummin'

sweetly in the pale moonlight,

just a yellow sliver in the sky 

and your melody

floating so softly

You were a ghastly sight,

beautifully illuminated

by the piccolo vibrations

floating from your 

rosy cheeks

I thought life would be just lovely

so full and complete

if there was a banjo 

to accompany you,

oh, how heavenly that'd be

But I did not have a banjo

on that night, so I did the next best thing,

as we got closer,

moving our separate ways

in the pale moonlight,

I sang along to your 

brave little melody.

You were surprised, 

then your cheeks grew redder with embarrassment, 

then we both smiled at each other and continued 

our separate ways,

carrying the song

with my voice and

your humming
