BLUE NIGHT

BLUE NIGHT

       
                 Blue night, how serene you are when the silence touches these walls
                   Housing my peaceful mind without any layers of anguish and woes,
                         These layers have been stripped from the core of my being
                              As in the night I place my head and rest my thoughts,
                                  It is the choice I make: to trust and to hope.

                                Placid night, go gentle into the vastness,
                             Ease with patience and protect like a soft cloak,
                       Wear the blue velvet gown and blanket me in quiet beauty
                                     Like a boat full of hope sailing home.

It’s a great reading, Janie. Keep reading the great Poets of the 1800s. You do like my writings, don’t you? It makes my day.

You can beat an egg, but you just can't beat hope .. You have to hold on to it tightly and wish really hard .. Am glad I did a little bit of trawling today .. It sure beats dredging any day .. Neville
