Veil of the Ethereal NightA Poem by Oscar Auliq-IceIn the quietude of darkness, where moonbeams softly tread, Lies a veil so ethereal, where nightly whispers are spread. The celestial sphere, adorned with a glittering, starry sheath, Whispers tales of ancient times, and mysteries beneath. Through the vast and shadowed plains, where silent dreams take flight, Spirits dance with subtle grace, beneath the gentle night. The trees, silent sentinels, hold secrets in their boughs, As they sway with ancient rhythms, under the moon’s solemn vows. Night creatures, eyes aglow, navigate through the serene, Exploring the quiet landscape, under the night’s gentle sheen. The rustle of the evening breeze, a melody so sweet, Serenades the tranquil world, where earth and sky meet. Within the shroud of darkness, imagination freely flows, Weaving through the stars above, and the quiet earth below. The river, a silver ribbon, reflects the gleaming light, Meandering through the dreaming land, in the tranquil arms of night. In the ethereal semi-darkness, where reflections gently play, The heart may find solace, amidst the shadows gray. For in each delicate whisper, and in the owl’s distant hoot, Lies a peaceful solitude, where life’s struggles mute. As we wander through the veil, of the enchanting, quiet night, May our souls find restful peace, under the stars so bright. And in the softness of the darkness, let our worries gently fade, Into the tender arms of night, where serene dreams are made.
