Midnight Beaches
On a silent night, I stare at the stars shining bright.
Under the moonlit night,I stand, On an unending
sea of sand. The cool winds gently caress my
cheeks, As they unwind for a lovely breeze. The
sound of waves is serene, they come and go unseen. A tall tower stands on the rocky peak,
Emitting rays of hope for ships’ whose sight is
bleak, The stars glitter in the pitch black sky, Like
silver dust scattered by the Creator on high. A
huge white lamp stands shimmering anew,
Adorning the seas and the sand with her silver
hue. It is a time when many sleep, Yet a few
remain awake to enjoy the silence sweet.
