Nighttime in the Country

The night light seeped through the window in my room
The moon was glowing brightly amid the stars

The traits of nighttime in the country

A meteor flies past, my eyes blinded by the light
I hear the howling of the wind and the dust it is blowing-the color of Mars

The traits of nighttime in the country

I lie down on my fluffy pillow, and feel the soothing touch of its gentle hug
The sheets and blankets embrace me with a feeling of warmth and comfort

The traits of nighttime in the country

Before falling into a dream, I take a sip of water
It tastes fresh and filling; to one's throat a delightful yet calming resort

The traits of nighttime in the country

I listen to the murmur of the creek
The relaxing scene lulls me to sleep

The traits of nighttime in the country
