April 25: Like a Song in the Night

 



Like a Song in the Night
          by Tom King

Something sings in the dark
In the wee hours before us.
Sings me off to sleep in peace
And night birds join the chorus.

Something about the early dark,
Night full of the moon and stars
Drifting overhead with the planets
Making music Venus, Jupiter and Mars.

The night in its silence makes song,
You can hear it if you're still and quiet
And in the distance galaxies play music
And stars and nebulae run riot.
