Light

Bright as a full moon
On a cold summer's night,
Full of hope, love, and dreams,
The ground was aglow.
The night was below,
And the lights
Carried out
Their event.

The sky it did dance,
On that cold winter's night,
Making love with the creatures below.
The faces that turned
Up saw a show,
And the lights
Carried out
Their event.

Then as bright as it was
It turned suddenly black,
And everything ran for cover.
They were scared that the darkness above them
Had snuffed out the candle
Because their eyes
Had fallen
Upon
Them.

So love of the summer
Would wait for to come
And so would the light of the night.
To bed they would go
And wait for a
Night when
the sky was
Alight
Again.
