The Veil of Night

Thomas Koron

At dusk we shall bask in the veil of night, 
Covering all that the eye ever sees. 
A cloak of clouds masking the moon so bright, 
As bats fly in circles above the trees. 
We push our problems so far out of sight, 
Searching for peace, we set our minds at ease. 
Until we rise up with the morning light, 
Hoping that we've rested enough to please. 
We go to sleep putting our lives on hold, 
Bringing a sense of calmness to our dreams. 
Relaxed at last, we sleep the night away, 
But there are stars with stories to be told. 
They keep us company, or so it seems, 
And then, they disappear into the day.

    wonderfully intense in poetic tone
    where repetition of theme, is pertinently utilised
    to exhaust a subject's varyingly angles of perspective
    and depth,
    with your effortless couplet flow, insures
    we readers stay engaged throughout, this worded journey
    of enlightening insight's, wrapped
    in that mystique: of poetic delight!
    a great read, thanks for sharing dear poet
