Deep of the Night

There's a magical peace In the deep of the night All is still As if the world spins slow A quiet that escapes me During the loud hustle Of the sunlit hours The house speaks to me In settling creaks As if it prefers the night as well Remnants of the day Strewn around now lifeless I can hear the soft whispers Of the moon And my loud thoughts Now tranquil Enjoying the blanket Of still silence

Lovely. Day is too distracting; night gives us the chance to listen to the silence. // paul
