Starry Night

STARRY NIGHT Conditions perfect on that starry night With hunters' moon illuminating land They crossed the coast, a ribbon gleaming white That peaceful scene no threat to their command In symmetry advance red rose formation Untroubled as in civil formal dance Accompanied by Merlin murmuration One single driving focus no backward glance A night that would enhance a summer dream When constellations tell romantic tales As lovers gaze each others eyes that gleam With promise: their devotion never fails But look their end point no longer clandestine Neath starlit sky it lay, fair city of Dresden
