Darkness Brings On a Stupendous Night
Fear arises when shadows invade the tall elms,
warblers went to rest...my robin refuses to sing;
stillness's a wish for dreamers living out
a stupendous night!
Beauty's seen in the distant stars that flicker,
and astonished, I am overwhelmed with joy;
lovers seek silence when darkness brings on
a stupendous night!
