Visions
Peaceful Night
Shades of night commencing,
shadows are lengthening.
The busy day is done,
peaceful night begun.
Nightingale sings, Whippoorwill calls
far away, the sound of waterfalls
white clouds darkening to gray
as slowly slips away this day
time to watch the sun go by
in glorious streaks across the sky
crimson, orange and yellow,
making us feel mellow,
whispering, gentle breeze
the lush Summer trees
silhouetted 'gainst the sky
holding my loving wife close by
peace descending like a dove,
as a benediction from above!
shadows are lengthening.
The busy day is done,
peaceful night begun.
Nightingale sings, Whippoorwill calls
far away, the sound of waterfalls
white clouds darkening to gray
as slowly slips away this day
time to watch the sun go by
in glorious streaks across the sky
crimson, orange and yellow,
making us feel mellow,
whispering, gentle breeze
the lush Summer trees
silhouetted 'gainst the sky
holding my loving wife close by
peace descending like a dove,
as a benediction from above!
