A Country Night

A COUNTRY NIGHT

Stars glisten against a black velvet sky
A wind chime melody played by a gentle breeze
Nature’s entertainment 

Cicadas sing from the old oak trees
Coyotes howl on a nearby hill
Bullfrogs offer their nocturnal serenade.

Sounds of creation fill the cool night air
A song that only nature can sing
An orchestra of music on a country night 

The breeze stills   
Silence covers the darkness
A calm so quiet you can hear an ant crawl.   

It’s intermission!
