Oft I yearn for evening's falling,
Propitious in her silent calling,
To hear her voice on distant wind,
What message will to me she send?
When broken then the sweat of day,
As comes advent of night's display,
A thousand million stars resplendent,
Aglow in welkin sky transcendent.
Would it be that night's caress,
Would softly swirl as silken tress,
Upon mine brow in gentle kiss,
As of her touch I reminisce.
Unguent oil of dark's illusion,
Is night but a mere allusion?
From forth the depths of heaven cast,
Caressing me with muses past,
I wait for her in trepidation,
O' how I ache for evening's falling,
Propitious in her silent calling.

Splendid in its aspect of longing, and the true beauty of that being longed for.  I really enjoyed this one.
