Nightfall

Nightfall

Nighttime falls
Revealing a glimpse
Of the rising darkness
As the sunshine slips

Into the vast realm of nothingness
Frozen in time
As the rich, tranquil tones
Illuminate the sky…
Contrasting the glow of the twinkling stars,
The bold brilliance, of Jupiter, Venus, and Mars.

Ascending into the wonders beyond our limited picture of life
The wondering moon lifts us up to the sky
Soaring to reach new heights
A glimmering gleam of magic
A shimmering beam of hope
A glance at the world through the eyes of God
His truth shining all aglow

The silent song of nightfall,
The music of the sky
Remind us all that night never lasts,
And at break of dawn, whispers good-bye

With incomparable silent splendor
And a voice of courage and strength
The fiery lantern embraces the earth
And smiles through the darkness again

A reflection of inspirational beauty,
A promise of tomorrow’s light
A vision of Heaven’s harmony
A lullaby that greets the night.
