A Little Child of the Night

Placed 8th in : A Brian Strand Premiere no. 1217 Poerty Contest A Little Child of the Night (Revisited 21 June 2023) A little child, joyful and smiling above in the nightly sky, Keen to please the beholder`s eyes and beckoning her to tenderly take him In her arms and fondle with him, Shower pure motherly love and lull him to rest Close by her maternal breast until the radiant light of the coming day Will without woe veil his lesser light away. When * night will stealthily creep in, up high he will smile anew. * * * * * *
