What's not to love?
What's not to marvel at?
At the mauve lilac dusk?
At the smiling crescent moon?
Moon glowing up above?
Moon of extraordinary beauty
Beauty of solitude
Beauty of night sounds
Sounds of Katydids
Sounds of Nightjars
Nightjars calling here and there
Nightjars flying in the sky
Sky of pitch-blackness
Sky littered with fireflies
Fireflies by the thousands!
Fireflies looking like stars
Stars wished upon
Stars of sheer wonder
Wonder without cease
Wonder so glorious
Glorious enchantment
Glorious Asteria
Asteria playing her lyre
Asteria serenading Nyx
Nyx, goddess of night
Nyx as well as Morpheus
Morpheus not resembling "The Matrix" one
Morpheus, the god of dreams
Dreams so serene
Dreams of twilight time
Time and tide
Time to repose
Repose peacefully
Repose out in the open
Open sesame
Open, refreshing night air
Air engendering comfort
Air engendering relaxation
Relaxation in midnight stillness
Relaxation quite delightful
Delightful crepuscular afterglow
Delightful ambience
Ambience captivating
Ambience so inviting
Inviting atmosphere
Inviting spectacle
Spectacle of moonlight
Spectacle of nightfall
Nightfall
Moonlight
