A Perfect Night

The trees are swaying in the wind
The moonlight trying to get in
To shine on two people who have just met
To light up their world so they won’t forget

They fell in love on a perfect July day
They promised one another to never sway
Falling in love on a perfect night
Falling in love was their plight

Having the wind blow ever so slight
Having the smell of the air on this perfect night
Made for a peace and tranquility that is hard to find
Made for two people to share nature’s kind

As the moonlight faded away early in the morning
As the sun started rising without warning
You could see these two people were in a good plight
You could tell that they were victims of a perfect night.
