It's three oclock in the morning.
Here I lie contentedly in my bed
   enjoying the coolness of crisp,
   clean sheets against my skin.
Diaphanous sheers dance in the summer
   breeze as the light from the luminescent
   moon filters through them.
The warm breeze is stirring the lazy maple
   outside my open window, and the fragrance
   of honeysuckle fills my room.
The peacefulness of the night promotes a
   clarity of thought not possible in the
   hubbub of the day's activities.
I feel in tune with my inner self
   and with all that is around me.
Frogs from a nearby pond fill the night with
   their throaty songs, while crickets
   sing a chorus all their own.
I am alone, though I do not feel lonely.
The familiar sights and sounds
   are comforting to me.
