Midnight's Garden Through the closing door of a setting sun Beyond never more, the reach of darkness Lies a hidden view of fantasies spun A land of dreams due those who are dreamless Moments spring flowers in rows of Starlight Surrounding towers of fog-thick hedges As centered fountains of youthful Moonlight Cascade the mountains at Garden's edges This where thoughts allure, set free from the mind Just outside the door as Midnight bells chime Memories flourish as the soul will find The pain and anguish of love throughout time Behold its beauty for those close are few As night openly closes time for you |
