Midnight

When the moon rises up in the blood red sky
and the sun slowly waves goodbye
the birds sleepily flutter back to the nest
Golden light that flooded the world of best
that slowly fades to dark
The moon glides across the sky slowly like a lark
A path of silver across the lake
beautiful like a piece of cake
Trees sing a song through rustling leaves
Wind softly blows under the eaves
Calls echo through the night
reaching far beyond your line of sight
Owls soar through the night
Silently creatures lie, tired from the fight
The world bathed in a silvery light
filling you with a sense of might
Ruling the world from high above,
silently swooping like a dove
Dawn rises. Something new
The morning, drops of dew
