Thunderclaps and lightning bolts
make the symphony of the night.
Tonight they play "3 o'Clock Rain,"
orchestrated by God himself.
All the stars sit in their balcony seats,
adorned in their dazzling regalia.
The moon man but peaks from behind his cloud curtain,
too shy to show his face to the earthly audience.
It is nature's lithe rolls and soft rumbling
that sing me to sleep tonight.
Midnight thunderstorms always calm me.
