I See the Moon
I See the Moon
Nursery Rhyme
I see the moon,
And the moon sees me;
God bless the moon,
And God bless me.
Notes
"Look at the moon some night and say:
'I see the moon,
The moon sees me;
The moon sees somebody
I want to see.'
Then name the person you wish to see, and in a day or two you will see that person." -From "What They Say in New England"
