Beautiful Night

As I stand here gazing out of the window,

The moonlight filled my room with a white glow.

A faint chill of the wind,

Sets my mind free and past unwind.

White fronds of head high grasses sway,

I soak myself in the calming impact of sun's deflected ray.

I see dark clouds hanging above,

In the calm of the night, when all creatures make love.

The shimmering moon is always an inspiration to humankind,

Pure and innocent you, always invokes musings in my mind.

My soul is wandering like a bird in the sky,

The only one unchanging thing is I.

Every moment is so refreshing and peace,

And for a while, my sorrows also cease.

A puff of wind swept across me,

Swept the low hanging clouds far across the sea.

Shy moon playing hide and seek with nimbus,

All through the night, making romantic sight thus.

While I am in this state of mind there is no time like the present,

Moon now waned to a slim crescent.

The vast inky sky stretched out for infinity,

Conscious of eternal nature, feeling the boundless serenity.

In the eerie darkness of night,

Silhouette of the horned owl on a tree filled me with fright.

Seems like the sky would swallow me up whole,

At the same time, it could hold me

And whisper words of comfort to my soul.

On the edge of this heaven born starlight,

It is a beautiful starry night.

Keeping stress and fears at bay,

It is indeed more colored than the day.
