Night Garden

The garden at night in the moon light doesn’t look the way that it does in the day. The moon light shines down upon the dark ground making shadows fall while night creatures crawl. You won’t see a bird. No bees will be heard. Although you might see a night owl in a tree. A bat in the sky flies swiftly by. No butterflies are about, but the moths have come out. As moths flutter around making eerie sounds that disturbs the darkness and the swirling night mist. A cat on the prowl, the hoot of an owl, the chirp of a cricket hid inside a thicket. The rocks on the ground form shapes all around. Images of things in the daylight unseen. The moonlit path trail winds around like a snail, weaving out and in back to where it began. The roses are dim. You can barely see them by the ghostly light in the garden at night.
