Poem - Into the Night - Donn Hoffmann

Into The Night

With the luster of a velvet moon

Along the summits of mountains

Heaven opens over lakes and groves

In the quiet shade of the valley below

There along the path she is found

A motion of loveliness, her heart serene

She walks with pleasure and pure delight

With a perfume laden breeze

Among the trees, where flowers grow

Amidst the songs of birds, she pauses

Her love appears, courageous in her eyes

Her heart rushing against her breast

With trembling knees, she cannot sustain

Spirited by his gaze to him she goes

Into the night all pleasure found

With him she will remain
