Night Light

Across the ridges and peaks Behind the mountain’s lore Rides the night light I adore A silent moon that soars Creating a night of sweet accord Lying high up in the sky It moves so slowly that I do try To capture its gentle essence With my camera and lens Create a reflection of the scene Without a doubt, it does loom Just in the sight of evening’s gloom Taking up the night’s spirit With a sense of intimate glistening That shares time with dancing stars I feel adoration for its beauty Amid the twinkling stars that Are sometimes going shooting I love the allure of this glorious ball Sending out chills into nights call When the moon is so full and alive I know just why God allows it to survive With its welcoming light for night It softly radiates all the nocturnal wonders That unfold throughout the planet
