Observations For a Summer Night

The setting sun shines down on trees and lawns While white puffy clouds sail serenely along Two black dogs walk on padded feet down smooth grassy streets And the cat in the corner meows and chases her tail round and round In the distance a babbling brook flows merrily by And schools of fish settle in under a starry sky Camp fires glow cheerfully far into the night Serenaded by crickets and frogs hiding from the light And high above the heavens bewitch with quiet tunes Lulling all to sleep under a full summer moon Till dawn finally creeps out from its womb with a lazy sigh
