Star Gazing

Last night at the Bickley (Star) Obervatory i learnt that there are two extra full moons this year, in January and March, the second moon is referred to as the blue moon. Hence the expression 'once in a blue moon' because this happens so rarely. All i could think of was the Cowboy Junkies version of the 1934 hit song Blue Moon. What a dreamy night..

Blue Moon
Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone, 
Without a dream in my heart, 
Without a love of my own, 
Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for, 
You heard me saying a prayer for, 
Someone I could care for,And then there suddenly appeared before me, 
Someone my arms could really hold, 
I heard you whisper "Darling please adore me," 
And when I looked to the moon it had turned to gold,

Blue moon, now I'm no longer alone, 
Without a dream in my heart, 
Without a love of my own.
