Sonnet of the Night

Ringing in the stars with harmonies of night 
no greater sonnet ever was then that of 
midnight hues of moody blues and acorn light 
oh blessed breath forsake me not thereof 
no splendor greater then this evening glow 
has ever touched my brow or curved my smile 
I long to stitch this memory with songs of flow   
then wear it like a crown while I compile 
a sonnet of great beauty by a sway 
as worthy as the dusk that falls upon 
a willow bark of deep cafe au lait 
oh blessed breath enfold me til' the dawn 
has blushed my reverie and seized my day 
enwrapping with gauze and morning ray.
