BY AUGUSTINE CATHEY

The night is curious and silent
Looking for sings of sleep dance the shadows
Through darkness light showing bright are the stars
Smiling mischievously through the window of
My life is the moon
In the sky the answer is found of our dreams
But behind the lines are hidden rhymes and secrets

Without trying is the loss of secrets
In the sky they are hidden at night
The questions of why we are created in dreams
The answer to why the bewildered and
Wondering roam the shadows
The cause of mischief from the moon.
My plight can be guided by stars.

Glittering like diamonds I stare at the stars
If you believe waiting there are the secrets
To help us find our way is the light of the moon
The clock will stop throughout the night
Time will stand still for the shadows
At twilight dream a dream.

Dark nightmares can become dreams
That are showered with the lights of stars
Beginning to move at the shadows
Lost are the secrets
Everything is silent
Even the moon

Curious is now the moon
Deeply questioned is my dream
Small and silent
Are the night stars
Paradise is in dreams
That even the scenes of shadows.

There are now no shadows
Gone is the moon
The answer to dream secrets
Now sweet are my dreams
The dim and distant stars
Grown silent.

Silent are the shadows
The stars and the moon fade
But dreams remain secret
