The sun goes down, to earth descends
The cool west wind blows in to make
A broader way, between the clouds
To let the light ignite the lake.
The fi’ry water, glistens shines
I sit and watch the quick pass of time
The world around, like a mother
Bends in to hug the night so sublime.
The light goes down, the dark sky fills
With brilliant stars uncounted still
The virgin moon pokes out her pure face
And lights a landscape, marv’lous place.
Listen to the silence, fallen down
Soft slow and simple–quiet sound
Quick kisses now she lavishes here
And spreads night’s joy to all around.
The dark sublime of night’s dark clime
Is his in the beauty of the sight
But there beneath the moon’s dark glow
There hides a darker blacker might.
