Moonlight Waltz

Beneath the white power of the moon, Stones rumble. Laughing River waters answer, Field Daisy bows to Meadow Rose. Leafy arms grasp throaty vines and the moonlight waltz begins. Mister Elm directs with head bowed and arms raised in ardent abandon. Miss Willow sways. Skirts swirl seductively, brushing her ankles, stirring the moon-kissed air, awaking the enchanted, who join the dance to celebrate freedom of the night. Only the nocturnal experience the joyful play and learn the secret of Nature's night-time symphony. At the first hint of dawn, music fades, movement stills, creatures retreat into burrows and slip into day-mode.
