The glittering solitaires
strewn across the dark blanket
A poet's longing and desires
to pluck, lay into the straw basket.
An astronomer's delight
wakes up all night.
A lover's paradise
Sleep sacrifice.
A sailor's guide
an ally by his side.
When the sun peep
Thou go to sleep
A bride in finery
adornments in all silvery
Thou deck up at night
all day hide in veil,nowhere in sight.
A lighthouse up there.
Thou go to sleep
into the sky deep.
