Few Owls Gather Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Few Owls Gather



The night is falling.
See!
The few owls gather
Soberly;
The nightingales
Place themselves on boughs
That scent of ancient days
Inspirers of sweet wondrous
Lays
And
The stars are whispering:
The moon see!
It sends a kiss to Earth
And the sea-bosom
Lights
Silver the dark waves
Skiffs pass.
See!
There be such silence here
That the heart breaks
