Dearest Joy

Stars danced late, weary from their gleaming flight,

Clouds nestled snug in crevices of towering hills,

Scenery slumbered early, basking in the delight 

Silence draped over the tranquil desert thrills.

Caravans of camels embarked on distant sands,

Wind’s violins sang with fervent, lively zest,

Oasis isles beckoned by swift, unseen hands.

Still, in the shaded groves, life chose to rest.

Each candle's glow waned, whispered, goodnight,

Until now in this silence, our feelings lay. 

Night’s smiles departed, leaving hush in its flight.

All eagerly awaiting the dawn's tender golden ray.

Where are you?, mine Savior, give me a voice, dearest 

Joy in the solitude of night, my spirit's annoyed.
