The Mystery of the Night

Updated: Aug 8, 2019

Ah well now it is strange indeed

The mysteries of the night

The light turns to darkness

And the darkness turns to light


There is no frenzy there is no buzz

Things are warm and cozy

And everywhere little children

Wait for a bedtime story


People retreat indoors

There is no need to be out

Stay out too long and others wonder

What mischief you are about


The night brings suspicisions 

As much as it brings rest

The darkness ever blinds our eyes

Putting sight to the test


The air grows quieter

Things start to still

And in the sky the stars twinkle

As they forever will


It is a fog indeed the night

Through which I cannot see

Beyond the ending of a day

Another yet to be

Castles in the Sky

I should like to lie in a garden And look up at the sky Where the clouds would freely roam And the gentle birds would fly

Winds of Memory

The wind sings with memory And I remember each time and place When I closed my eyes in appreciation As it blessed me with its grace
