Night Snow
O beauteous night, a wondrous sight
Of falling snow in evening light
Darkness grows against the white
Seems surreal, this ethereal night
Flakes gently embracing leaves on their flight
Settling on barks turning brown to white
Fairies waltzing on a silver kite
Angels treading softly, fearful of slight
A candle glows across the lane
Flickering away from the window pane
Lest a gentle wind blows the flame
To unsettle the drifting path in vain
Hushed silence, the world is in slumber
Sleep is a waste on such a night in winter
I dance with elves, goblins, and pixies
to the strains of haunting symphonies
Revelling in rapturous wonder
Till dawn breaks the hypnotic spell
Of heavenly paradise on snowbell
