Night's Symphony

Night is a cloak of darkness
Haunted by silence, hiding secrets untold
But if you listen, you will soon find
The symphonies of the night will unfold.
The cry of a lone owl strikes the first note
Like cellos, penetrating the air
A slow waltz of crotchets and quavers
Through the silence the music will tear
The percussive drum of your footsteps
Pounding against the rugged floor
Beating in unison to the steady pulse of a heart
A quiet night this is no more.
Can you hear it?
The rustle of trees rising in a crescendo
Un-tuned violins bowed by the breeze
Swaying to the rising wind
Proving to be more than it appears
So listen to the sound of the night
To the cellos in an owls cry
To the drum in your footsteps
To the violins in the trees
And music will take its flight
Can you hear it?
Nights symphony.
