why are you awake, child? the wind whispers. thunder is far too loud! i say. would you like it if i sang you a lullaby? asked the rain. i nodded. tap...tap...tap... sings the rain upon my window. the wind pushed the tree branch against my window back and forth...back and forth...back and forth... the moon shined through my window as bright as the sun would let her causing the walls of my room to turn a light, baby blue with "polkadots." thank you. i smile, closing my eyes. tap...tap...tap... shhhh...shhhh....shhh... pitter patter
