Friends Of The Night Poem by Gerry Legister

I have been out walking in the night.
I see reflections by the moon and the stars.
I have out walked further than the city light.

And looked at the shadows serene sizes.
I am joined by an invisible phenomenon.
Wandering from streets into different houses.

Looking for that place of rest in every town,
we become friends and walked uninterrupted
passing houses where other forces may own.

As the night wore on I tried to say good-bye;
But the unearthly friends kept multiplying,
Like luminary stars joined together in the sky.

Friends of the night are neither frightening nor right.
But together we became acquainted with the night.
