Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

Full Moon


Awake, love, see the glory of the night,
     The glory of the night!
Let's walk the silver carpet
Under heaven's lantern bright.


Still is the air,
Silent are the trees;
Even the stars have closed their peeping eyes
And left us to the night.
     The glory of the night!


Alone on the silver carpet.
Alone, love ... alone ...


Awake, love, awake! ... the lark!

Written by Gertrude P. McBrown (1898-1989)
