Who sings so sweetly tonight,
That makes me pause my dreaming,
Who sings to glowing moonlight,
A crescent barely beaming,
Who sings so softly and low,
That words are just a murmur
Left just outside my window
So I go open my door
To hear the wandering song,
But the singers went away,
Not staying one place too long,
Nighttime song to make the day
They Carol sweetly tonight,
and makes me pause from dreaming.

This is replete with gentle imagery - and it all combines to create a poem which itself gently glows...

'Who sings so softly and low,
That words are just a murmur
Left just outside my window'

Excellent write, Gloom...
