The night mends The day's trends And silence wraps the starry sky. The candle's wick comes to an end, In darkness, no more warmth to lend. Night birds screech their lonely song And I, in silence, sing along. The end comes, The cold numbs, And Satan leers an evil grin. The wind cries, The flame dies, Regretting it had ever been. The candle's wick comes to an end, In darkness, no more warmth to lend. Night birds screech their lonely song And I, in silence, sing along. derek -- Derek Zahn @ wisconsin ...!{allegra,heurikon,ihnp4,seismo,sfwin,ucbvax,uwm-evax}!uwvax!derek derek@wisc-rsch.arpa
