Nightfall

Children’s laughter on the wind
Bird song bringing shadows in
Peace descending and resplendent
As daylight turns to eve.

Sunlight drops behind the trees
Bringing warriors to their knees
In the summer where they live
In the summer where they breathe

Children seek to warrior find
Children seek one of their kind
In the houses where they play
Know that this is, the best way

Flowers sing of where they’ve been
Without guilt and without sin
Gilding air and sound alike
Gilding air and human skin

Angels sing exaltation
Surpass our expectation
Peace descending and resplendent
As daylight turns to eve
