Peace of the Night

As the sun sets and moonlight shines

I slip into my nightgown soft and made of silk

Walking through the dew-covered grass

The crickets starting to sing as I go

A cool breeze brushes against my skin

It's a beautiful night belonging to me

Stillness all around me but I don't fear

I'm claiming the night as mine

Laughter escapes from my lips

Tears of joy fill my eyes

Out here in the light of the moon

I'm free to be the girl I truly am

Mr. Moon is my spotlight

The crickets are my chorus

Nature is so beautiful

Peace is at the reigns

I treasure these precious hours

Where the unseen is revealed

The rustling of leaves

Water rippling in the pond

It's quiet and it's still
