Look,
Here are we
On this starry night staring into space.
And I must say
I feel as small as dust
Lying down here.
What point could there be troubling?
Head down wondering what will
Become of me,
Why concern we cannot see
But no reason to abandon it.

Maybe I'll go in the middle of the night.
Take your hands from your eyes, my love,
Everything must end some time,
Don't burn the day away. — Dave Matthews

When hills and valleys teem
With buds and vines sweet scented,
All clothed in glowing green.

My days are long and clear
And truly I'm the fairest,
Of all months in the year. — Mary Weston Fordham
