As darkness wraps its cloak around the land
Animals vanish hurriedly to their resting grounds
The stars twinkle from the velvety sky far above
As if signalling for a miracle about to happen
The sound of wings fills the dark night air
A mystical horse, pure as pearl, white as snow
An angel from heaven paying us an earthly visit
Silhouetted and proud against the moonlit sky
It stands and watches and takes in the view
No one to witness this scene but one pair of eyes
A child watching from his room up high
His face so bright, his eyes wide with delight
And as he watches it is time for the horse to move on again
Its wings rise, ready for its flight back home again
It vanishes swiftly as it came, never to be seen again
