ENCHANTED NIGHT
By Quentin Smith
Many moons are out tonight,
Many ladders lean on the earth;
All can be climbed
With blue moon-struck steps . . .
I climb a long blue ladder of light
Beyond the cooling winds,
Stars whisper above me
In the meadows of the night;
Down the silver rays
Come chimes, touching
Open my head,
Invisible wings
Of thought
Leave me
And are gone upwards Forever.
