Notes About The Poem

When the Sun Goes In

When the sun goes in-   night will fall,
and up above stars will sprawl;
I lay my head upon my pillow,
and my curtains billow.
I can see the stars blinking and they seem to call,
yes, I hear my name being whispered . . .  
    so from my bed I crawl.

I am drifting up-   into the sky,
didn't know I could fly;
up above the night clouds I see a zillion stars,
and suddenly a star stirs.
Oh, these are the spirits of my beloved-  I sigh,
then, many are shooting here and there . . .
    and I want to cry.

My beloved are the stars-  in the night,
they zoom shining so bright;
then, I am swept up and we are dancing,
across the dark night sky prancing.
Waltzing and zooming with stars is quite a delight,
but soon darkness is starting to go . . . 
    and stars fade out of sight.
