Embrace The Night Poem by K J

Embrace The Night

Rating: 5.0


As I go into the night,
I feel the world around me.
Walking away, leaving behind
All the rest of humanity.

As I walk into the night,
I find myself heading out.
Out towards the place of meeting;
Towards the place where no one speaks.

As I halt within the night,
I scan the trees around me.
I crouch down to the earth
And feel it pulsing ‘neath my hand.

As I wait within the night,
I send my senses outward.
I feel the life around me, growing.
The trees, the grass, they give me peace.

As I listen in the night,
I gaze up to the stars.
The powers hear my troubles out,
And give me answers to my queries.

As I head home through the night,
I embrace the calm that settles o’er.
I thank the powers for their aid,
And for the wisdom I have gained
Each time I go into the night.
