My Home

The subtle sounds of the night are all too clear;

I hear the crickets performing their nightly concert for all who care to listen.

As I look around, the fireflies illuminate the darkness that has overtaken my presence;

I gladly accept the feeling of being a minor player in this major production.

The thick air of the summer night is all too familiar to me,

The sense of peace I feel in this very place, the sense of calm and nighttime charm,

I love this place I’m in…I’m so proud to call it home.
