Her Highness

Misty nighttime air brings a cool dampness The sky is turning purple this evening Night came in like royalty, her highness She’s a ruler, masterful night being That in which harmony and moisture cling The backdrop is a velvet black landscape Where drops of remaining sunlight does drape Sounds of a party going on next door Is prevalent in the night air escape But I sit and sip my cocoa some more
