Above me shining in nightly radiance
Are the stars twinkling, clouded by earthly luminance.
I long for the darkness, crisp and clear,
Where might I but listen for those dear
Evening breaths of this star so near.
Yet worldly strains constrain me
And higher bounds contain thee,
Such that I must strain to glimpse thee
But you doth fain release me.
And so I reach with heart alive
To glance upon and thus contrive
A pardon for weary soul's reprieve.
And thus the nightly lights be set
And thus to shade reason's counterfeit.
