In the quiet hush of night,
When the world lays down its burdens,
Sleep descends, a gentle warden,
Guarding dreams with soft delight.
Stars twinkle in the velvet sky,
A silent symphony unfolds,
As eyelids close and stories told,
In realms where fantasies lie.
The moonlight bathes the room in grace,
Shadows dance in silent play,
Whispering secrets of the day,
In sleep’s tender, warm embrace.
Through the night, in peaceful streams,
Hearts are healed and spirits mend,
Until the dawn brings night to end,
And wakes us gently from our dreams.
