| It's a calm night for a walk My senses are dulled by the dimmed atmosphere The absence of nature's mechanical adversary Enhances the serene scene Then along came a spider Swinging down the dormant trees Its frail webs perceptible only in the subtle luminosity of the street light It's a delicate light For a delightful Night The cricket chirps and buzzing bees interrupt the silence In swift diapasons of sound In the horizon A glaring glimpse of tomorrow looms above Shedding light as it should for it is a new day But as one day begins One must first end The Night is Over. |
