Twisted branches wrap around
seeking out the light
yet shadows fleeting now surround
in shades of deepest night
Streetlamps shimmer in the rain
and under the rain clouds glow
hidden moon changing, yet always the same,
guarding the world below.
The stars shine out in contrast
as the clouds now sighing clear
they will be there to the last
A gentle gift to stave off fear
The strength of the stars will fade
as the dawn comes anew
men rejoice to see the sun
But day-blind stars still sing hope too
