In the still of morning’s light Softly glowing – in virgin’s white Burning away the dew of night Arising in shadows, stardust delight In the sigh of a songster’s flame Graceful stories, poetries dark shame Bruising the mists with heartache’s game Embracing the moments with love’s claim In the silence of a sensation’s ray Skies alive with hearts who still pray Raising the spirits who’re never gray Wistful twilight shall never betray In the senses of a heart who hears Joys and dreams lost in hope’s tears Rain softly speaks through dark fears Reassuring the soul throughout the years In the sound of grace being spent Wonderful blessings, heaven sent Broken by the snowflake’s gentle descent Remembering love who won’t relent In the splendor of God’s gift of grace Inspiring the night to breath an embrace Soothing the heart no one can replace Singing in voices doubts can’t erase In the sweetness of a summer’s sun Stirring the melody that can’t be undone A song of light, love and fun Nepenthe speaks with elation spun
