Spirits awakening
Filling the night
Whispering Softly, Enfolding, Embracing

Banishing darkness
Bringing shadows to light
Rhythmically Floating, Playing, Chasing

They dance in a swirl
Not a word do they say
Silently Singing, Heavenly, Divine

Summoning forth a Revenant Specter
To guide you on your way
Celestial Seraph, Ethereal, Sublime

You comfort the night

As darkness casts the shadows

And I begin to doubt

Through the ups and downs

As I try to find my way home

You guide me, never judging

Silently lighting my way

The Calling

Shadows trace the figure
Cast upon an empty sea
She stands against
The pallid sky
A blended symphony

Light against the muted tones
It draws her ever near
Calling her back
Into the realm
She slowly disappears

The sun begins to shimmer
Casting an ethereal glow
Gracefully
She glimmers within
The circle of her halo

The Last of the Light

It is only night
When sunset illumins
The last of the light

Clouds turn to dark
In ebony skies
Casting their shadows
In night’s overt guise
Winds gather softly
Heaving their sighs
Whisked away in a breeze
Back again in reprise

A sweet melody
On the eve, this is night
When sunset illumins
The last of the light

Light in the Darkness

The night broke
As daylight faded
Behind the shadows
Of yesterday’s warmth

Stars awakened
With a twinkle
Like eyes winking
The promise of more

Yet I wonder
As I close my eyes
Will they diminish
Fizzle away, die

Would this be the end
Of light guiding darkness
Or the beginning
Of darkness coveting day
And I open my eyes
