The Night Sky

Jayasree

A full moon

hangs low in the sky,

like a lantern,

lighting up the night sky.

The haunting music 

of the night birds

wafts across the 

still air.

A soft wind kisses 

the tops of the trees

and the fragrance 

 of the night blooming jasmine

fills the moonlit night.

A million stars 

sparkling like diamonds,

adorn the sky ,

and I stand,

lost in the wonder,

lost in the silver-soaked night,

The moonlight 

shimmering and glittering

all around me.

  • dusk arising

    Alone with the midnight moon and her light bathes a magic glow to yesterdays growth. Yes you capture her radience well and the magic she beams into our soul.
