When the dusk shadows
Are on the forest

When the leaves rustle
For a moment and then are still

When all but one bird is silent
Softly singing his little tune
Then I know it’s you

Who moves
In the mood’s lambent air
Gliding under a silver moon

The turbulent sea
Calmed by your presence

The darkening hour unafraid
Of whatever is to be

It is indeed most fine!

I am especially fond of:

"...I know it’s you

Who moves
In the mood’s lambent air
Gliding under a silver moon

The turbulent sea
Calmed by your presence

The darkening hour unafraid
Of whatever is to be"
