In The Darkness, Sparkles

by Biscuit   Dec 9, 2005


Blow out thy candle, pray, sit by me,
lend me thine eyes to observe the night
by the light of the moon which shines upon thee.
Look! How the stars are twinkling bright
and the night, in the darkness, sparkles.

I beckon to thee, child, rest at my side,
hush now and taketh a moment to glance
at the dance of the shadows, so handsome with pride.
Hark! At the song of the raindrops trance
whose glance, in the darkness, sparkles.

Witness the beauty, and peace afore us;
a black silk blanket covers the sun in a sleep
so deep. The glittering clouds sprinkle their dust
on the crystalline curtain from whence we creep
To peep, as the darkness sparkles
