Night-time, a mystic veil unfurled,

Where dreams dance in shadows swirled,

A symphony of stars on high,

In darkness, poets' hearts comply.

Beneath the moon's celestial grace,

Whispers of midnight secrets embrace,

The velvet sky, an endless sea,

With constellations, a tapestry.

As crickets strum their lullabies,

And fireflies paint the darkened skies,

The night unfolds its grand design,

A masterpiece, serene and fine.

Amidst the stillness, a gentle breeze,

It rustles leaves on sleepy trees,

The hooting owl, a solemn call,

In night's embrace, it does enthral.

Soft silhouettes, a subtle sight,

In lunar glow, a lover's flight,

Their souls entwined, two hearts ignite,

A dance of shadows, pure delight.

The twinkling stars like diamonds gleam,

As wishes rise on hope's sweet beam,

Night's tender touch, a lover's kiss,

In moonlit magic, hearts find bliss.

Yet darkness holds a subtle fright,

The unknown lurks in the moon's pale light,

But courage blooms amidst the fear,

As night-time whispers, "I am here."

In dreams, we roam beyond the sky,

In slumber's realm, we learn to fly,

The night-time hours, a voyage deep,

Where fantasies and realities meet.

So, embrace the night, let go of day,

In twilight's arms, find peace and sway,

For as the stars above align,

In night's embrace, your soul will shine.
