The sun descends from amber skies,
As warriors of light arise,
The queen of night and all her stars:
Another day is ending.
A reign by day and one by night,
As light and darkness both unite,
A precious touch, such rare delight:
A border where all dreams are.
It lasts but seconds, then is gone,
A passing sign of what’s been done,
A sacred proof of what’s begun:
The universe is waiting.
And thus the reign of night begins,
Collecting thoughts, collecting dreams,
Transforming them: bright, hopeful gleams
Of joy, of life, of wonder.
