A PERFECT NIGHT

lying in the dark

listening to the wind

rustle dead tree-leaves

listening to crickets

sing a never-ending song

cool, damp air

weighs heavy on my chest

and stars glitter in a black sky

thats a perfect night



two sisters under one blanket

whispering in a flashlight's glow

struggling to conceal their giggles

footsteps... BUSTED in the act!

sinking back down the hall

and sliding into cold covers

warmth from within,

draws a smile...

thats a perfect night



a pillow that has been flipped

cool and soft against my cheek

my hair blows a little

in the wind from a fan

tickles my face

shadows dance around

what a fascinating show

thats a perfect night



my baby beside me

breathing slow and steady

watching a movie

we've both seen before

slow and passionate kisses

that make me nervous every time

that leave me breathless

he whispers in my ear

"I love you"

thats a perfect night
