Summer nights delight.

rhymimg quatrains in tetrameter

Summer nights delight.

 

The sable cloak of night is sown

With a beauty which is shown

By a myriad points of light.

Which show against the dark of night

 

 

A background certain to enhance
Selena mistress of romance

As she observes young lovers dreams

She blesses them with soft moon beams.

 

Although the moon is permanent

Young love is often transient

But for tonight the moon will do.

Her best to make your dreams come true.

 

The sable cloak of night conceals

What the morning sun reveals

Feelings engendered by the moon

Can fade away alas too soon.

I don't know if it was the title or the words...but it made me think of Shakespear's Midsummer's Night's Dream. Your words, like Shakespear's, inspired dark beauty and magic. xo

This poem painted a picture of a magical night with snow glowing against the reflection of the full moon. It is a beautiful piece of art. It is inspiration for every hopeless romantic.
