A Place for “that Old Devil Moon”


Super Snow Moon 2019

I look at you and suddenly, something in your eyes I see;
Soon begins bewitching me.
It's that old devil moon that you stole from the skies.
It's that old devil moon in your eyes.
You and you glance make this romance too hot to handle.
Stars in the night, blazing their light can't hold a candle;
To your razzle-dazzle.
You've got me flyin' high and wide, on a magic carpet ride;
Full of butterflies inside.
Wanna cry, wanna croon, wanna laugh like a loon.
It's that old devil moon in your eyes.
Just when I think, I'm free as a dove.
Old devil moon, deep in your eyes, blinds me with love.

Songwriters: E. Y. Harburg / Burton Lane

Sometime within the next 24 hours the February Super Snow Moon may be visible at Merry Mount.  If so, it “will be fittin", for I will be able to glance into the eyes of the lady that “blinds me with Love”.

On February 15th, we celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary.  How wonderful it is to look back on forty-three years! 

Memory, hither come,
And tune your merry notes;
And, while upon the wind,
Your music floats,
I'll pore upon the stream,
Where sighing lovers dream,
And fish for fancies as they pass
Within the watery glass.

-William Blake (1757-1827)






Wanna cry, wanna croon, wanna laugh like a loon.
It's that old devil moon in your eyes.
Just when I think, I'm free as a dove.
Old devil moon, deep in your eyes, blinds me with love.


Love you, Rett
