Rippling Winds of Time

An endless ebony sky
caresses the still, cold
  mountain-moon…
a lantern hung on the
  highest peaks
to tease the first bright
  evening-star,
with a light that brushes
the stairs of heaven,
and shakes the saddened
  soul,  
to illuminate the lonely  
  mind,
that all the world of men
is but tiny ripples passing…
on the winds of time!

Especially enjoyed this part:

"stairs of heaven,
and shakes the saddened
  soul,  
to illuminate the lonely  
  mind,
that all the world of men
is but tiny ripples passing…
on the winds of time!"

I enjoyed reading this. It really paints a picture in my mind.

"with a light that brushes
the stairs of heaven,
and shakes the saddened
  soul,"

This part stood out to me especially.
Good job.
