As The Night Descends

 

As the night draws the curtain close

And all the earth lays down it’s head

The moon and shadows strike a pose

As our little ones are tucked in bed

 

Ethereal beings take to flight

As heavens’ curtain slowly falls

They pass unseen through out the night

To undertake their sacred calls

 

To guard frail humans in their sleep

Bringing hope to weary souls

From house to house,they quickly leap

To carry out heavens’goals
