Night Flower
You captivate me with your beauty
Standing tall in the black of night,
Shining through as the sun fades, thick through the moon light.
Where have your bees and butterflies gone?
We're used to watching you canoodle with the sun
Back to their homes hidden deep and far away
Out of reach to bats and creatures who consider them prey
Could you be more beautiful at night?
We don't think of you often at the turn of the earth
With too many other distractions
The mind wanders with thoughts in other dimensions
Good night flower
Good night moon
Good night stars
See you
soon.
