Listen to the hush of night
Creatures scurry here and there
But there is a loud crescendo
Of the orchestra of life

Listen to the hush of night
Stop, Breathe, absorb
The emotion of the dark
As nature's creatures talk

Listen to the hush of night
And you'll hear your name
Spoken on the waves of wind
As your troubles flow away

Listen to the hush of night
Could it be that animals
Can serenade one another
Expressing love in foreign verse

Listen to the hush of night
And you could hear the call
Of a friend in need who
Is calling you heart to heart

Listen to the hush of night
As night merges to day
The orchestra plays a great
Masterpiece for its encore

Listen to the hush of night
Be as attentive as you can
The creatures’ voices fade
As they bid you come again.

Thank you Coco! I thought this one would slip quickly into obscurity.  I appreciate your thoughts!

In the city, there seems to be no hush of night... the sirens are just more piercing. *S* But I love listening to the night noises at my Dad's farm... 'cept for mosquitoes whining! LOL. This is great!
