Welcome
I'm just starting this out to see how things go and hopefully I can really make this look good, so this will change soon

The Night Says Sleep The night says sleep, with stars aglow,
A hush so soft to the world below.
The curtains sigh, the shadows creep,
The night says sleep; a call so deep.
A book half closed, a lamp turned low,
Thoughts wander where the dreamers go.
In whispered tones, in breath held tight,
The night says sleep; not fear, but flight.
The wind taps softly upon the pane,
A lullaby in soft refrain.
The clock ticks on, the stillness grows,
The night says sleep; and silence knows.
But hearts still stir in hidden pain,
Not every dark forgets the rain.
A restless soul counts secrets steep,
The night says sleep; and means to weep.
Then morning waits behind the black,
Its golden promise drawing back.
One final breath, a fading leap,
The night says sleep; and grants me peace. |
