Nighttime Serenity
A train
A whistle
A full moon
Feelings amassed
In proportions
Awesome and tranquil
Nighttime emotion
Become so serene
Just like those lamplights
And bedtime fans
Twirling in twilight
Adjusting to the night
Eyes see little
But the leftover reds
From the light
As night commences
In full accord
Only the sound of the train
Clanking down the tracks
And the distant whistle
Remain
And the sound
Of the fan
Whirl-winding around
In complete rhythm
To the train
And the moons escape
Towards infinity
As night moves along
And I drift off to sleep…
