Midnight Ride

dreary is the day

enemey of the sun

night brings calm

calm and peace

with the moon

gleaming in her brother's sky

the night is hers

her silver chariot

illuminates the land

like a softly flaming candle

the eerie peaceful notes

of the song of the night

dance around the ears

of the beings that mystically dance

under the chariot's light

gleaming and glowing

as the rivers flow beneath her

streaming in her presence

their silver-blue water

singing the song

of the nymphs and satyrs long ago

and still they dance

in an open field

under the moon's silver gleam

singing and playing the song of the night

dancing to the peaceful melody

the light brings down

to the hearts of the mysterious entities

the light sings with them

as her midnight ride has set

and sister dawn wakes the world

from its dreamy trance

to ready for another day

of gloom and drear
