After Midnight

After midnight the moon dims down low
As the stars take center stage
Filling the sky glamorously
And the creatures of the night 
Come out from hiding
Using the stars as their nightlight
My lover meets me under the willow tree
With a candle in one hand and a rose in the other
As breath-taking as the quiet early morn. After midnight
