SILENCE OF THE NIGHT

Present and past 

Both contained in future 

And the future is contained in the past.

When the shadows of night 

Meet the dreams of the past 

And the visions of future come

The firmament depicts the story. 

In the silence of night 

When the mountains confer beneath the stars. 

In notions of lilac and mauve 

Cloak in indigo

In crept across the welkin.

The darkness moves 

And the sky blushes,

A deep salmon pink,

When the morning star comes.
