Twirling rifts in nighttime sky
Bring sweet whiffs of paradise
An island drifting far away
A palace of ice in a crystal land
Midnight hour close at hand
Violin playing sweet in nightclub band
Willow trees swaying in the night
Great bird spreads wings and then takes flight.

Oh, beautiful. I can imagine a multicolored vivid bird taking it's flight in the middle of the night. Perfect, it beautiful.
