A Night of Memories

We stand amongst the silent trees And watch the goings of a breeze A breath of air that flows on by And shows the path to you and I The darkened shapes around us stand Like sentries guarding the silent land And watching from their perches high The twinkling stars that light the sky On we walk through darkened keep While the world around us fast asleep Except for those the creatures fair Who claim the darkness as their lair A passing cloud reveals a sight The moon in all her golden light A light for us to see the way So from this path we'll never stray The brilliant rays shining on down Upon the midnight land around A golden light for you and me To crown this night in memory
