SONGS in the night are those ether ebbs that gently float between The heaven above and the earth below, where flowers of beauty beam, And the sweetness that ripples above the cup, in incense purely white, Is, as the robin that sings through showers, for the "echo" of songs at night. The rivers may how through scorching plains and kiss their feet 't is true And gladden the mists that gently rise, to fall as the morning dew, And sparkle as gems on the dancing blades of grass, ere it takes its flight To a higher plane, a Sphere Divine, sweetening the songs of night. A million gems in the firmament, that on the brightest day Are gathering force, perhaps for night, to light us along the way; And nothing but darkness may call them forth the Universe to light, As they were designed to feast the soul, on the sacred songs of night. |
