NIGHT MAGIC
She looks into the darkened night
What she sees is magic
Of a winter evening in the woodland
Full moon glistening on a flowing stream
Ripples shining like silver eyes in the dark
Flashing their enchantment to the night creatures
Shimmering water flows around ice covered stones
Iced lace patterns splashed free form against them
Sparkling like diamonds in the moon's light
Frost covered ferns lean heavily over the banks
Trees like twisted dark shadows reach into the sky
Pointing toward tiny lights of flame
Stars of the universe gleam down in a black velvet sky
Night sounds surround her
Eerie calls of the natural world
Soft rustles in the underbrush
Deer moving in slow motion
Shadows of the night
Life abounds around her
Alone, yet not alone in this magic night
