The sun has gone,
the stars are glowing,
lights have vanished,
the quiet is growing.
The chirps of birds,
more distant,
it seems that the world has changed,
in an instant.
Outside,
looking up at the darkened sky,
finding constellations,
as the time passes by.
Before long,
all you can think,
is the wonder of the stars,
as the moon starts to sink.
You marvel at how late it has gotten,
as the time you can't tell;
for all the while,
You were under midnight's spell.

Very nicely done.....I love the imagery and formatting you used. I think you could have done better, but all in all it was well done. "You marvel at how late it has gotten,
as the time you can't tell;
for all the while,
You were under midnight's spell." I love this part the best because of how you structured it and the words flow easily in an entrancing way.
