Your Eyes Are Pearls Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Your eyes are pearls but in
The night they shine best
With some sweet tears bright
And the playful rays of moon’s light.

Magicians assemble!
For today the night be a night
That prowls with the cats
But prowls high above
Not in hedges of Hastings
But in hedges of clouds:
Magicians assemble!

The night be arrived
The day has now closed
And midnight soon strikes:
So many a church and a chapel
All belfries be ready to strike
Deep midnight.
And in the cathedral
Ancient organs play
Though the doors be all closed
No humans around
Yet how sweet the notes
And floating on air
Sweeter floats the sweet sound!
