Beneath the velvet cloak of night,
Stars adorn the sky so bright,
Silent whispers of the moon,
Serenade the world in tune.
Shadows dance in pale moonlight,
Dreams take flight in gentle night,
Secrets kept in dark embrace,
Time slows down, a tender grace.
Owls hoot a lullaby,
Crickets sing, winds softly sigh,
Nature’s chorus in the dark,
Leaves a calm, a soothing mark.
As the night begins to fade,
Dawn’s first light casts a shade,
A promise of a new day’s start,
Night’s beauty lingers in the heart.
