Midnight Halo

Midnight halo paints trees with silver glitter
Writing verses with white
Frozen snowflakes of petals still shiver
Composing old songs, pale lullabies
Wistful waves of the sea to flow
For a tiny wonder of a midnight awe

Come cover me with blue
Of midwinter tide
Sing me a lullaby
I have nothing to give you
But a kiss of dawn and scent of morning dew

Come cover me with white
Of midsummer night
Write me a poem without a rhyme
I have nothing to give you
But my heart and a soul of dark midnight gloom

I wish I could find the way
To guide them so blind astray
To the end of neverending fairytale
Secret hidden dreamer’s hideaway

I wish I could find a fallen star
To understand who we are
A drop of ancient lore
Resting under the deepest core

Midnight paints a dream with wonder and awe
Farewell song drawing tears in my eyes for long
So I’m falling enduring all my dreams for you

A lonely longer longing for a storytime, all sleepless nights and ocean deep
For a verse of me, a song in need, my everything writing still a dearest dream
