Until the Splendor Fades

Above the lake, the moon, tonight,
Silvers everything in sight.
Every shrub, each bush and tree,
Gleams and glows, metallically!
Silver roses line the way
To where the spring flings sliver spray,
Shimmering through the air, to fall,
Back into the waterfall.

On the grass, each drop of dew,
Is made of liquid silver too
And in the woods, where shadows play,
Silver moonbeams lose their way.
There's a magic quality
In this lustrous night I see.
How it calls to me to stay,
Until the splendor fades away!

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost
