AT MIDNIGHT, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: See, yonder, the belfry tower
Last Line: Twelve petals are wafted down.


SEE, yonder, the belfry tower
That gleams in the moon's pale light;
Or is it a ghostly flower
That dreams in the silent night?

I listen and hear the chime
Go quavering o'er the town,
And out of this flower of Time
Twelve petals are wafted down.
