INTO WINTERS NIGHT

INTO WINTERS NIGHT

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON  2019 

THE SUN RAYS FELL UPON THE TREES

CLOAKED IN GOLD AND RED

SUMMERS LAST DANCE WITH THE FALL

JUST A COURTESY, NOTHING MORE

THAT WAS ALL 

DEEPER BLUE THE SKIES TURN GRAY

SUMMERS FADED KISS TURNS AWAY

FLOCKS OF GEESE

ALIGHT FROM THE RIVER

CHASING THE SUN

AND EVERYTHING IS SILENT AGAIN

DARKER DAYS CHASE THE LIGHT

BUT ITS FADING

INTO WINTERS NIGHT 

A PAPER MOON AND SILVER STARS

HOW NEAR HOW FAR

THE MILES IN BETWEEN

FROM WHERE YOU ARE

TO WAKE AGAIN TO A SWEET SUN

TIME HOLDS FAST

THE WINTERS WHITE AND COLD

AGAINST THE FLAMES BURNING

 BRIGHTLY IN THE NIGHT

A FEATHER SKY

HOW MANY DREAMS AWAY

HOW LONG UNTIL THE RAIN

THE SWEET FLOWERS WAKE AGAIN

SPREAD THEIR PETALS

 TOWARDS THE SUNNY SKIES

BREATHE IN THE BURNING SUN

IN THIS LAND OF ICE AND SNOW

THIS FROZEN WORLD

CAUGHT UP IN SLEEPY DREAMS

JUST UNTIL THE BLUEBIRD SINGS

HIS SWEET MELODY

IN THE SOFT SUMMER LIGHT

UP IN THE SKY

COLD DARK AND GRAY

TIME SLIPS AWAY

INTO WINTERS NIGHT
