JEWELLED WITH STARS
O lovely night, jewelled with stars,
out of the dark pines by the wayside
I came to gaze upon thy loveliness.
The air is still
and tall trees loom by the wayside;
they stand deep and holy in the sky,
laced with a thousand yellow stars.
My way is dim,
and leads me to the hills.
Out of the raven gloom I go,
and look down upon the silent waters in the vale.
O lovely night, jewelled with stars,
out of the dark pines by the wayside
I come to stand in awe before thy mystery.
