Night


Sleep so tightly, my little one dear.
Shadows and monsters are nothing to fear
Inside the morning sadness is found
When all of nights beauty is not all around
Sip in the music of silence and shade
Gulp the cool breeze, where dreamers are made
Laugh with the wind, as he rushes in strides
Tickeling your fancy till you ache in your sides
Remember the widow, the orphan, the lark
For all are alone, in their beds, after dark
Sing the sweet music of stars in the sky
Sampling the efforts of mystics near by
See how the waves of graid do shift
The clouds of pollution do softly lift
Fields of ocean running swifty to shore
Piles of pilgrims dancing once more
Shepherds writing of sun and moon
Hurry in dream land, the sun will come soon
And as the darkness slips away
It is time to start another day
Even so shed not one tiny tear, young lad
For soon another night is yet to be had
