Oh Night

Poem about the glory and mysteries of the night.

OH NIGHT

Dazzle me, oh dark of night,
I see your sentries shining bright.
May I glimpse a shooting star?
Its sight would be spectacular.

Please add to this a brilliant moon,
With magic that makes lovers croon.
So slow the evening's shroud please fray,
I love to watch it slip away.

The treading dawn shall soon provide
A warm caress to satisfy,
The new day fledged with gushing birth,
Inspiriting life upon the earth.
