Summer nights

 

Summer nights

 

On a summer night such as this

I love watching the full moon rise high

Just to sit and watch the beauty.

How can a creator man deny?

 

When the moon peaks above the clouds

The tranquil scene lit in silver light

Peace returns after a long day,

Sweet sleep now is no longer a fight

 

The crickets chirp their lullaby

their rhythm a comfort to the ear!

Thunder rumbles in the distance.

It’s so peaceful lying in my bed here!

 

Until the dawn starts to brighten the sky

The songbird’s tune in hushed silence waits,

They greet the sun in cheerful tones

Until the noon’s heat their song abates

 

But once the sun has retreated,

Summer’s choir resumes their chorus;

Even the shrill tree frog’s voice blends

This sweet lullaby God made for us.

August 2015
