Day Is Now Asleep

Day is now asleep
for the night is young,
with hours still to keep
which shadows prolong.

Shadings in and out
silence still each thought,
moon so far about
in with gleaming brought.

Deep in sleep we go
finding dreams thereon,
nocturnal breezes blow
untill umbrage is gone.

Day is now asleep
nothing is though for long,
soon away to sweep
lonesome dusky song.
