Dark Velvet Sky of Night

Quiet,
Soft,
Shining bright.

Dark,
Velvet,
Smooth and slight,
Dark,
Velvet,
Sky of night.

Breeze so soft
Upon my skin,
Rest the weary
Fore the morrow begins

Settled sound
In my bed,
Upon a pillow
I rest my head.

Drifting dozily,
My thoughts fade out,
So softly sleeping
Dreaming about.

A turn,
A sigh,
A dream so slight,
A dream of dreams
The dream of night.

Dark,
Velvet,
Smooth and slight,
I dream my dreams
Under the sky of night.
