Secrets of a Summer Night

Secrets of a Summer Night They met in a cornfield at midnight ‘Neath the light of a pale harvest moon No sweet music played in the background But the crickets provided a tune Away from the gaze of the barn owl Their sweet romance started to bloom The fox and the hare were not even there So the two lovers started to spoon The summer night guarded their secret And no-one was even aware Of the passion displayed by these lovers As they showed just how much they could care And when it was done they both snuggled In the light of the stars far above Then they scurried away to face a new day Two cute furry fieldmice in love!

Enjoyed this, Mike. Love the flow and well-timed rhyme. And twist at the end. Wonder how many kids they must have by now? ;
