TALES BY NIGHT (a poem by Yugo Gabriel Egboluche)

Yugo Gabriel EgbolucheMarch 18, 2019March 31, 2019

Stare into the night, so you’d see the moon, swimming thru buoyant ocean of clouds. Stare, so you’d perceive from its trail, a desert of astounding grandeur

Stare into the night, so you’d
see the moon, swimming thru
buoyant ocean of clouds. Stare,
so you'd perceive from its trail,
a desert of astounding grandeur
 
Steer thru the night, so you'd
find, mortal shadows hide oddly
behind light beams. Steer, so
you'd see in subtle luminescence,
a parody of impeccable earthlings
 
Stir the night, so you’d
summon the wisdom
of spent sires.  Stir so
you’d  learn from counsel,
a secret hidden from babes
 
Stay the night, so you too
would hear the muse whispers,
in the silence of dusk. Stay, so
you'd receive in its glorious wake,
a lavish bouquet of fresh dreams
