Heavenly Night

Listen to the night reciting heavenly music When purple sky brightens with angelic spirits Mesmerized by the twilight's fabulous glory As the shining stars swing to celestial lyrics Streets are beaming in cherubic nightfall Stage has been set for the curtain call Romance is dancing in a rhythmic ball Happiness is reigning over one and all Watch the sun's orange glow deep in the river As clouds block the view of a lone photographer When wild horses frolic in open air theater Half-moon sketches arc to announce its arrival People are singing a melodious song Signs of melancholy have long gone Echo of joy reverberates the town For angels have joined to sing-along See emerald green dipping in reflective ocean As the moonlight shines upon supernal passion When the milky-way stirs up ardent emotions Watch the lighthouse rise-up to greet horizon No one wants to say goodbye tonight For revelers see the seraphic bright light As festive images dominate every sight Blessed by the presence of saintly might Hear heavenly night singing hymns of compassion As constellation bursts with flashes of excitement And the town meditates in ethereal devotion When cadence of the Holy echoes veneration December 12, 2017 Placed 1st: Strand Pick 4 Contest by Brian Strand Heavenly night Sponsor: Vermillion Scythe Placed 7th
