Nocturne (Nocturne)

"Silverclear this moonlit eve,
blue billow of the night,
countless sparkling waves roll in,
dancing in the light.
Shadows fall upon the road,
the bushes weep so soft and sore,
dark giants guard the silver of the shore.
Silence deep in summer’s midst,
sleep and dream, –
tender moon over the ocean,
white agleam."~Edith Södergran
