A Night In the Backyard

As I lie down The light glitters Of the little yet brilliant stars Of the cute fireflies Trying to reach out to me Trying to talk to me It's a full moon Makes me feel hungry Is it a cracker? Or is it a biscuit? It brings me a smile It's the time for the nocturnes The frogs croaking In a loud voice Just like an orchestra Crickets chirping Rubbing their legs Just like a violin Bats are screaming Sonic waves Just like playful children Free of worries And as the night Grows darker My eyes hurt My head is dizzy It's time to go to bed
