A Poem About NIGHT by Nobody: 8:03pm On Feb 21, 2017
Spirits of the Night
In swirling clouds of silver
lace
The disk of Luna lies
concealed
Across the Autumn skies
they race
Over this shadow realm
surreal.
On evening shadows now, I
gaze
A gentle wind swirls through
the trees
From depths of sleep, I
watch half-dazed
Thin branches stirring in the
breeze.
Lights flickering neath mystic
skies
Through gaps in trees, they
shine within
Entranced, my mind, I watch
surprised
This spectral beauty in the
wind.
In these dark shadows, spirits
drift
Translucent ghosts and
dryads old
From this meadow, I sense
their gift
Strange stories from the
wood untold.
Oh let me join thy sylvan fest
Pale spirits of this Solstice
night
Before the Moon sets in the
west
We'll revel neath her misty
light.[color=]Spirits of the Night
