Night Song - an art work by T Newfields

Night Song


What produces the night?

We should experience this
and never fear the dark

There's no need to shudder
after the sun melts upon the horizon
or bats fly against stars

The cool evening breeze
never sleeps

and if you look closely
night is far from stark

Therefore fear not -
The deeper the darkness
The more brilliant each spark
