As night takes over from the twilight
Slowly leans over, to shade the last rays
Like the mother trying to protect her baby
Tired, from the hectic days of fun and play
A prelude to the soft lullabies is audible
The tired limbs and the mind need to rest
Last bird has flown to its nest, to wake up early
Leaves are drooping low in nonchalance
Embracing the branches, to be safe for night
The footsteps will cease to trample the ground
Night’s melodious breeze will sing a song
Even the divine audience will join the soiree
Silver moonlight brings a charming ambience
With pleasant memories, souls will retire
Cushioned by the beautiful dreams and silence©

when I am not being an insomniac I love the peace I feel right before falling asleep, you describe the divinity of night very well. When I am being an insomniac I still find the night so divine. I have my complete solitude.

Thank you so much. Yes, night and the darkness is time for solitude and at times can be testing, but still we want to embrace the night.

if you can alleviate others pain by expressing yourself. you are healing more than just yourself and that is beautiful. The best thing that has come from reading and writing for me is realizing I am not alone in the way I think and feel.

I always feel literature plays an immense role in shaping society and enhance its thinking. Writing, be it any genre, should add value and others must find value in that too. Thank you for your encouraging words.
