ON A SILENT NIGHT

ON A SILENT NIGHT

A Poem by SPINNING ON that dizzy edge

WHEN THE MOON IS FULL

AND THE SKY IS PITCH

AND THE AIR'S SO COLD

THAT THE STARS CALL YOU

TO PULL THEM DOWN

AND TO HOLD THEM CLOSE

AND TO BRING THEM IN

TO THE WARMTH OF YOUR HOME

TO THE BEAT OF YOUR HEART

TO THE SMILE IN YOUR EYES

LIKE A GENTLE KISS

ON A SLEEPING BABE

ON A SILENT NIGHT

NOT UNLIKE

TONIGHT.

Lovely piece for reading with mulled wine and frost filled air. Excellent.

A very calming piece that makes me feel at ease... I just love the night sky, the beauty of bright stars, the power of the moon and the mystery of the dark sky... very nice description of how intoxicating it can be.
