the frost of night

bring

on the frost of night.

the glaze

of winter

shone bright by

the one

eyed moon,

the cow

and the silver spoon.

bring back

childhood

and rhyme.

the window to stare

out of

until the end

of time.

bring back their

voices,

as they turn

off the lights

and blow a kiss

while whispering

good night.

keep them alive

a little while

longer. we know

how hard they tried.
