The Dark Of The Night

The darkness of the prolonged night

Is lit by the glim of moonlight, 

Some mysterious play in light and dark

The demonic figures are so arduous to mark. 

The sheen of pearl that dimly overcast the meadows

Reveals the surreptitious ingress of the uncouth shadows, 

The menaces of disguised hours surging within

The perdue eagle-eyed trappers can any moment jump in. 

It conceals crime, it conceals the arcane love

Enshrouds philosopher's entity that finds solace in the dark, 

The stilly hour's abode brings busy to mind the bliss

The dark of the night proclaims it's time to rest in peace.
