Music of the Night
February 6, 2012
Shhhhhhhh…..Listen
Blades of grass rub violins of moon
Wind through a log an oboe holds a tune
Crickets in the night pull strings of the harp
Water trickling from the leaves the piano starts
The sway of trees a mezzo piano percussion
Thunder in the distance sounds a steady drum
Ritardando and then a still pause- the lightning
Strikes fortissimo symphony, climax of the song
The sun crescendos and the symphony is soft
Day has awakened for music in a new light
But don’t forget to listen to the music of the night
