Moon over

  
The moon over her shoulder
Looked down past her feet
And lighted the path
To the lover she'd meet

She knew neither his name
Not countenance seen
But she knew he was near
By the guided moonbeam

One step following light
One step from the shadow
Not knowing her route 
But only to follow

This path set before her
From heavenly host
A track through the world
Would offer the most 

Not trodden down flat
From others before
Undiscovered 'til now
As true love it was pure 

When into a clearing
Lit clear lunar rays
Was the most beautiful man
Seen all of her days

She walked up beside him
Hand blindly found hand 
Just two brand new lovers
Left only to stand 

Her eyes followed as 
His gaze did not move
From that heavenly body
That match-making moon
