NIGHTINGALE

NIGHTINGALE

A Poem by Helena

 

NIGHTINGALE

 

When day has taken to her bed

‘neath the comforting blanket of night's

warm coverlet

mysterious moon lights her lamp

over a sleepy world

 

 

 

 

 stars shimmer

like fireflies to a

tinkling tune of

a nightingale’s novena

 

under heav’ns watchful eye

the oceans lonely lullaby

soothes the world into slumber

 

~
