Quiet at night <br />The snoring leaves breaks the looming silence <br />Gently brush by the breezy bites <br />Chilled and frozen by the ghostly midnight descent <br />Trace to trees and freeze <br />The aging cock alters a call against the gazing cloud <br />That falters back a smile of dew <br />It descend upon tired eyelids <br />Then humbled them down their base <br />With a gigantic melt of dreams and dew <br />What a world to travel skies and seas <br />Through all green land at ease <br />Upon a flat bed over the beauties of heaven <br />Where the diamond moon own a princely platform <br />Brief by joy by beautiful silence <br />And endowed the night with some pleasing humming <br />Bringing to our weariness aid and pampering sound <br />While drumming the pleasures of night host <br />Of treasures nightmare deep <br />Gives sleep a blend of sweeter feeling <br />A ripper rest and friendship <br />Once calm is come <br />Down is cast for all like infants sleep<br /><br />George Egba<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mid-night-world/
