The Night

When finally the night comes stolling in on joyful legs, doling out her silvery significance, rendering everything magnificent, and I greet her greedily, where will you be? I myself will have front seats: the tickets are for free. I'll watch the sky seep into magic and the colors of the sea... I know the spirits will be soaring to and fro; my spirit, so imploring, will soar with them as they go. Then the heavenly host of angels appear, all tremendously loud, whereupon the moon hands out cigars to the crowd, he's so proud.
