Midnight's Magic

Entertainment's nightly brewing Turtle doves a-cooing Brother Owl surveys the scene with regal hoots, he courts his queen A thousand points of light shimmer 'round the moon Across the dancing waters skip voices of white loons Rain beats swift 'gainst window panes Homes are shuttered tight Baby's heart stirs Momma's breast Cozy whispers through the night
