Shadow And Song Poem by Barry Middleton

the dying sunset fire has dimmed
but darkness is a song
the shadowed night is harmony
when light of day has gone

the moon's pretense is melody
that whispers of the way
and guides me like a siren's call
that death will soon betray

but still that silver glow recalls
a time of passion's light
though now a faded memory
that vanished into night

still I will roam the shadowed path
and listen to the moon
where blindness lost and desolate
finds comfort in its tune
