The darkness and stillness of the
night are comforting
They can be hypnotic
Drawing one towards sleep
As the city noises stop
The feeling of the coolness
of the air as the temperature drops
Feels wonderful
After the heat of the day
The sky turns black velvet with a
hint of starlight or perhaps
a sliver of moon
The warmth of the bed draws you in
Covered with sheets and
blankets wrapped for the night
As you lie there listening to the quiet your body craves sleep as your eyes begin to close
Dreamland awaits
