NIGHT WEPT!, by HALLIE ARLUND
First Line: As she folded her dark wings about her Last Line: To brush them away. Subject(s): Night; Bedtime
As she folded her dark wings about her, Night must have wept quietly, silently, For this morning, as I glanced From out my window-pane, I saw tears, shy and tender, Sparkling from grass-blade tops -- Glistening -- waiting For the cool morning wind To brush them away.
