The Twilight Spell
As the Moon with the first slim smile
And myriad stars appear in the sky grand
Ready to watch the earthly show a while ,
The awaiting crickets and frogs in the band
Begin their choral orchestra which booms high
From among the wild reeds and weeds and the lot ,
Along the swamp bordering the large lake ;
Despite the fond fish dancing deep down the spot
The water is still and graceful to reflect, and eke
The images of glow-worms glimmering : a fairy land ;
Creatures performing for the complete , perfect bliss
Of the beholder - far or near,romantic or bland ;
The vision eye of art would never afford to miss
Such free glory and glamour of a closing day ,
Never cloy ,but ecstatic a domain of the fay .
