a most remarkable lady in Florida in 1937.

A World with Two Moons
A World with Two Moons
Look at yourself,
You're such a fool,
Thinking that life was like
Landscapes in golden frames.
Look at yourself,
Oh, what a fool!
Filling fictitious dance cards
With imaginary names.I wanted a world,
A world with two moons,
Of petit point flowers
And colored balloons.I wanted a world
Of oceans and dawns,
Of sunlight on mountains
And shadows on lawns.A world of blending,
A world of winning
Where every ending
Is like each beginning.I wanted a world,
A world with a scrim,
Where somebody loves you
The way you love him.
Where somebody loves you
On soft afternoons,
Oh, what a world that was!
My world with two moons.
