Night shifts like the desert sand <br />Under shadows of the moon, <br />Pocketing threads of moonlight in clouds <br />Blown by Zephyr in a zip, <br />While leaves finger palm excitedly <br />Savouring delights of a date. <br /> <br />Come, taste the substance of night, <br />Feel tranquility under the canopy of heaven - <br />Where stars wear the twinkle of chloroform....... <br />Beneath the blanket of black rests the night.<br /><br />Robert Dummett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/desert-night-2/
