night time
Soft Summer night
Warm air cooled to just barely stifling
How I detest the darkness
That has fallen over the world.
Give me instead, glowing sunshine
Let it Burn away the shadows of the Earth
And never set, but perhaps merely dip
Near the horizon.
Until this I shall have to bath my home
In the artifice of sunlight,
and wait impatiently for the morning hours to come.
Warm air cooled to just barely stifling
How I detest the darkness
That has fallen over the world.
Give me instead, glowing sunshine
Let it Burn away the shadows of the Earth
And never set, but perhaps merely dip
Near the horizon.
Until this I shall have to bath my home
In the artifice of sunlight,
and wait impatiently for the morning hours to come.
