“Creak, creak.”
Goes an abandoned swing.
“Chirp, chirp.”
Sings a cricket nearby.
The stars quietly twinkle in the moonlit sky.
“Swish...”
Sway the trees gently in the breeze.
“Brr...”
I feel like I am going to freeze.
“Hoot, Hoot.”
Goes an owl perched on a nearby tree.
“Ooooh...”
Howls a coyote at the moon.
And the lazy lullaby of the night lures me to sleep.
