Between Midnight and Dawn

Overcome by the peace in the midnight hour Moonlight fills the otherwise velvet black sky Twinkles of newness invade our senses from afar The night so beautiful it causes us both to sigh On our tropical island watching the trees sway Love was captured between midnight and dawn Bodies entwined the feeling took our breath away Forever our nights under the moonlight will live on For: *Gail Doyle's first contest* "A Tropical Theme Under A Moonlight" Written By: Carol Brown 03/15/2012 1st Place Winner
