In the night, when from the stars
stretch out from the airy heavens.
The moon awakens with a sigh
and the fleeting sky carries
the tune of the nightingale
through the evergreen shadows.
Angels stand against the holy hue
of twilight, and a lovers tears
of high spirit stain the earth.

Fragrant flowers
and forests of Autumn leaves
lightly wet with morning due,
and wade the running rivers near
and wash away the hour.
Gentle beauty turns her face
with a certain magic  
and day and night is divided
by the music that plays
sweetly to her breath.

I think the beauty of your verse
is better caught if you separate
the sentences.

Delightful.

and you write her so well
I felt like I was inside your mind, standing there observing what you see...
sight, touch and feel without being there...well done my friend!
