A NIGHT OF PEACE

   (a quiet song)

The sorrow died

The blood quiet,

Enchanted evening

Cuddles a moon-garden

Fire flies flicker 

In a mad dance.

look, 

The flowers 

Have opened 

Their hearts.

A night of peace 

Enfolds the universe,

a wide night

specious and soft.

Look, 

There zooms a shooting star.

Your days are 

Still many,

You will be 

Given a sign.

Look, 

A white dove 

Nestles on the roof 

Of your house.

Even if distant 

The peace 

And strange,

Remember how 

Your heart 

Bloomed in 

That gentle 

Night.

look, 

A white feather

Flutters in the 

light-night
