Nighttime Peace

Night hours are still, as all must sleep. White moonbeams spill on oceans, deep; Sprite creatures chill- their silence keep. Bright flowers thrill to bow, rest reap- Tight buds wrap frill, while petals peep. Flight birds lose trill- no songs to cheep. Might of God's will- rules morning's leap; Rite of Sun's skill- makes new day sweep. June 27, 2020 Rules: First, middle and last words in the first line rhyme with those in the lines following.

This reads like a melody gently strummed on a harp.
