The darkness of night so deftly creeps upon us <br />incasing each of us <br />in its velvet softness <br /> <br />Each breath, each thought, every sense <br />heightened by encroaching silence <br />yet silence of mind eludes us <br /> <br />And there in lies the strength of night <br />like a mist of the past <br />hinting of the future <br /> <br />(Copyright Steven S.
