Midnight
As Midnight awakes
There’s darkness to embrace
Still — a witness to this thrill—
It’s dark, and lovely—albeit the chill
The Nocturne’s come to life—
From every walk — my, how they surprise
Far enough, though just in sight—
These stars shine bright, all through the night
While some may dream—
Streams, heaven, and other things—
Waning, waxing, full or new—
The clock strikes 12—the day begins, anew
