Nocturne

Captured in the fall of evening Stilled my soul in sweet recline - Spanning dark unclouded heavens Where the moon and stars align Haunted by the night`s sweet music With a song of soft lament Soothing then my heart in solace Filling me with pure content Then to `bide in glow of fireside Watching dancing shadows there Nothing but the moment lingers - Joyful just to sit and stare O, the dark shall be my haven So to rest with easeful mind Fixing yet my eyes upon you As in splendour so entwined Night of nights I bow before you Come, O come and take my soul Into realms where I may wander There your beauty to extol Quiet now, with calm acceptance Sorrows borne now fly away Gently sinking into slumber Yet to know another day Into somnolence then drifting In your grasp my spirit keep Dreams shall take my thoughts in whispers Peaceful now - I`m falling deep
